Hi everyone,

We have made a new PhD course for everyone working in the laboratory: DP00AT84-3001 Planning and Executing a Laboratory Research Project (1 - 3 ECTS)

We strongly encourage each research group to send at least one representative to the course (at least for Part1) to standardize laboratory practices in our lab facilities.

The course contains two parts. You can apply for PART1 only or PART1+2 together.

PART1 (1ECTS): Good Laboratory Practices, General Laboratory Safety & Pipetting 

The main focus in this part is the laboratory safety and good lab practises, thus this part suits for anyone working in the lab! Even if you have done pipetting before the pipetting exercise is a good chance to check how precise you are in it (or you can try harder solutions to pipet).

PART 2 (2 ECTS): Practical Training in the Molecular Laboratory

This part is good for anyone who needs practising in the basic molecular lab skills. In addition to DNA-extraction, PCR and agarose gel electrophoresis, you will also learn how to make solutions, do basic solution and dilution calculations, and optimize your PCR.

NOTE: Deadline for the registration is 5.11.2024.

See course advertisement below.

Cheers,

Saija & Samuel
