The Symposium and the Application Workshop presents unbiased international lectures & posters about
quantification strategies, normalisation methods & new algorithms for exact nucleic acid
quantification in the broad range of qPCR applications: Transcriptomics, Clinical Diagnostics, Food
Hygiene & GMO, Expression profiling, Microbiology, Pharmacogenomics, Forensic, Nutrigenomics,
Molecular Endocrinology, cDNA Array Verification, Theoretical qPCR, Pre-analytical Steps & RT,
Isolation of Nucleic Acids.http://www.wzw.tum.de/gene-quantification/qpcr2004/qpcr2004-workshop.html
More than 35 internationally renown speakers will be participating in a lively and exciting
programme enabling the valuable exchange of information in the qPCR field. As a special guest we can
announce Prof. Carl Wittwer from the Institute of pathology at the University of Utah School of
Medicine. He is an associate editor of Clinical Chemistry, and best known for developing techniques
in rapid-cycle PCR and as the inventor of the LightCycler. wzw.tum.demainOpen ↗
