Course overview
- This 5-day training is designed to provide a solid understanding of specific topics through presentation and laboratory work. Participants will gain significant experience in the performance of laboratory techniques taught in this PCR training. Through integrated learning methods, utilizing hands-on training to reinforce lecture material, participants will be able to apply information learned into applications in their own laboratories. During this training participants will learn the process of amplification by learning theory and techniques for PCR.
- Following this training, participants will be able to perform PCR reaction in their own laboratories, troubleshoot experiments, design primers and determine reaction conditions. We will cover critical requirements for amplification, thermostable DNA polymerases, reverse transcriptase reactions, cloning of PCR products, primer design and mutagenic PCR.
