Episode 1: Integrating PCR with Emerging Technologies
Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) technology has long been a cornerstone of genetic analysis. Now, it's evolving, intertwining with next-generation sequencing, CRISPR and microfluidics to unlock powerful new tools for genetic research and clinical applications. These integrations have the potential to revolutionize fields such as personalized medicine and infectious disease detection, pushing the boundaries of what's possible in modern science.
In the first episode of our New Frontiers in PCR Technology Series, we are excited to host an exclusive Ask Me Anything session with Professor Mikael Kubista, a leading expert in the field. Professor Kubista will explore the cutting-edge intersections of PCR with other transformative technologies, offering deep insights into how these advancements can drive innovation across various domains of science.
Professor Kubista is ready to take your questions on:
- How to efficiently plan and execute experiments that integrate PCR with next-generation sequencing and other advanced technologies
- Best practices for implementing sample preparation, transport, storage and purification to ensure high-quality results
- Approaches to designing quantitative and digital PCR assays that deliver reliable and reproducible data
- Techniques for validating assays by determining key metrics such as Limit of Detection, Limit of Quantification, efficiency, dynamic range and linearity
- Methods for applying effective strategies to analyze PCR data and extract meaningful results
