The Chair of Physiology Weihenstephan at the Technical University of Munich is organizing the 5th international qPCR 2011 Event taking place March 28th - April 1st 2011 in Freising-Weihenstephan, Germany. Scientists from all around the world will come to exchange ideas, share experiences, and discuss the exciting future of the perhaps most powerful analytical technology ever developed in the life sciences area – the quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR). More than 60 international speakers will present their latest research findings in the qPCR field. Focus of the event will be on Molecular Diagnostics - from single-cells to Next Generation Sequencing.
Symposium CALL for TALK & POSTER abstracts for the following sessions presented at the qPCR 2011 symposium:
Molecular diagnostics in single-cells; High throughput analysis in qPCR & Next Generation Sequencing; MIQE and QM strategies in qPCR; small RNAs qPCR - microRNA and siRNA Applications; Digital PCR & Nano-fluidics; Pre-analytical Steps, qPCR BioStatistics & BioInformatics

Using qPCR the amount of target nucleic acid in a complex sample can be determined with high precision, great accuracy, excellent specificity and the ultimate sensitivity of detecting a single molecule. The technique has revolutionized all molecular sciences and diagnostic applications. Conference presentations will include high throughput applications & Next Generation Sequencing, improved instrumentation, high performance nucleic acid extraction, single-cell applications, and application involving siRNAs and microRNA. Further developments of qPCR technology that will be presented include miniaturization, high throughput platforms, cost efficacy, validity, flexibility, quality assessment and reliable data calculations and interpretation. A specific focus will be on the application of the "MIQE Guidelines", on optimization and standardization of the quantitative PCR workflow.
Today there is no field in the life sciences research and diagnostics areas that has not introduced qPCR technology for nucleic acid analysis. The combination with reverse transcription enables determination of mRNA and widely opens the window for "Transcriptomics" – the first step of gene expression and "Functional Genomics".
In connection with the symposium three practical qPCR Workshops will be held March 30th – 1st April 2011 by the TATAA Biocenter (www.tataa.com) - the leading qPCR service provider in Europe. The 2-day workshops are hosted by international renowned scientists and experts in the field. The workshop themes will be: (1) Classical qPCR Application Workshop; (2) qPCR data analysis - Biostatistics & Expression Profiling; (3) MIQE guidelines & Practical primer-design.
An Industrial Exhibition will take place parallel to the symposium, with 30 leading biotechnology companies presenting their latest developments and services in the PCR field, including real-time PCR cyclers, nucleic acid extraction robots, consumables, fluorescence dyes, DNA and RNA detection and amplification chemistries, as well as real-time PCR data analysis software.
Participating companies and event sponsors: Roche Applied Science, Agilent Technologies, Bio-Rad, Qiagen, Exiqon, Biosearch Technologies, Sigma Life Science, IDT - Integrated DNA Technology, Nanostring, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Fluidigm, Premier Biosoft International, … und more.
