Technique Talk: Cell Transfection Techniques

Transfection—the process of introducing exogenous genetic material to cells—is one of the most common

techniques used in life science laboratories. However, researchers still face challenges when transfecting cells,

especially low transfection effi ciency and cytotoxicity. In this Technique Talk, sponsored by Mirus Bio, Sandy

Tseng will explore how to troubleshoot transfection issues, discuss alternatives to chemical transfection, and

off er tips for achieving optimal transfection effi ciency.

Quantitative PCR (qPCR) is one of the most widely used tools in genomics. It is so powerful and user-friendly

that researchers tend to over rely on it. Every technique has its limitations, and qPCR is no exception. There

are situations where a more refi ned PCR technique such as Droplet Digital PCR (ddPCR) could yield superior

results. In this webinar brought to you by Bio-Rad, Jörg Bantin and Eddy van Collenburg will discuss when

ddPCR should be used instead of qPCR and how to ease the transition.
