2010
LGC organises conference
on Accuracy in Molecular
Measurement
LGC, in its capacity as the
UK’s designated National Measurement
Institute for chemical and biochemical measurement, is pleased
to announce that a scientific conference on Accuracy in
molecular measurement will be held in London on 24 June
2010.
This one-day conference will
provide an opportunity for delegates to discuss the potential of
the latest molecular measurement techniques, methods and reference
systems, as well as the essential considerations needed to ensure
confidence in nucleic acid quantification.
The conference will be held
on 24 June 2010 at the Churchill Museum and Cabinet War Rooms in
London.
Professor Stephen Bustin from Barts and the London school of
Medicine and Dentistry, Queen Mary University of London, will
provide the keynote lecture on Improving the reliability of
RT-qPCR. This will be followed with a series of lectures which
will consider the analysis of nucleic acids and associated
measurement standardisation.
In addition, an 'Ask the
Experts Session' will give delegates an opportunity to
question a panel of experts and the conference will culminate with
a series of talks illustrating the potential of new developments in
molecular techniques in real world applications.
