qPCR 2010 in Vienna

International qPCR 2010 Symposium and Exhibition in Vienna 7th – 9th April 2010.
The focus of the qPCR 2010 Event will be “The ongoing evolution of qPCR” representing all new and emerging techniques, applications and data analysis methods. MIQE, HRM, microRNA, CNV, single-cell qPCR, digital PCR, and analysis of circulating nucleic acids will be in the focus of the conference => http://www.qpcr2010-vienna.net/

qPCR Symposium topic - “The ongoing evolution of qPCR”

The symposium focus will be on 40 lectures presented by international recognized experts in their application fields. The emphasis will be on unbiased, didactic information exchange. One third of the talks will be presented by invited speakers, one third of the speakers will be selected from the submitted abstracts and one third will be qPCR company representatives with their newest qPCR technologies.

The focus of the qPCR 2010 Event will be “The ongoing evolution of qPCR” representing all new and emerging techniques, applications and data analysis methods:
