This will benefit a wide array of professionals such as:
  • Quality Control
  • Assay Development
  • Assay Validation
  • Research and Development
  • Clinical Diagnostics

Why should you attend?

Since the beginning of the PCR revolution in the 1980s, molecular diagnostics have proven to be a useful tool for the clinical laboratory. The ability to analyze a variety of samples for DNA and RNA content have proven to be useful for a large number of clinical conditions using a number of different technologies. However, each technology has its pitfalls with how to handle samples for optimal results. In addition, different technologies have different challenges as to what can inhibit optimal results and each technology has a unique solution to these pitfalls.
