From Bench to Breakthrough: Scalable Molecular Workflows

Every sample carries critical biological information. Preserving that information is essential for meaningful discovery. Advances in molecular biology demand workflows that maintain sample integrity while enabling high-confidence data generation. QIAGEN partners with researchers to support discovery and translational applications from bench to breakthrough.

This seminar will explore strategies to protect and maximize the value of every sample: from stabilization and automated nucleic acid extraction to highly sensitive quantification using digital PCR and advanced next-generation sequencing approaches. 

Attendees will gain insight into how integrated workflows can improve limits of detection, reduce variability, and expand the scope of nucleic acid research, enabling deeper insights across basic and translational applications, including low-input and single-cell analysis.

Topics covered: 

• Sample Stabilization: Protecting biological integrity from collection through downstream analysis

• Automated Nucleic Acid Extraction: Scalable, reproducible purification workflows for DNA & RNA

• Digital PCR (dPCR): Absolute quantification with enhanced sensitivity and precision

• Next Generation Sequencing (NGS): Advanced sequencing approaches including low-input & single-cell applications

Lunch will be served.
