Basic Techniques in Molecular Biology, Primer Design, Sequences Data Analysis and Phylogenetic Tree Construction
2-4 October 2018
An International Training on Basic Techniques in Molecular Biology, Primer Design, Sequences Data Analysis and Phylogenetic Tree Construction was organized by VPHCAP and Excellent Center of Veterinary Public Health, Chiang Mai University in collaboration with Obihiro University of Agriculture and Veterinary Medicine, Japan.
We have an honor from Prof. Dr. Hisao Kurazono and Asst. Prof. Dr. Kayo Okumura from Obihiro University of Agriculture and Veterinary Medicine and Dr. Warangkhana Chaisowwong from Chiang Mai University as instructors. The study of molecular biology plays a key role in discovering new knowledge and creating new innovation in many fields along with medicine, veterinary medicine and as well as in public health. Laboratory practice needs basic techniques. Primer design, sequences data analysis and phylogenetic tree are one of those basic techniques required for analysis of genetic correlation. Better understanding of the basic techniques will lead to research effectively.
Date: 2-4 October 2018
Venue: Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Chiang Mai University
There were 29 participants working in fields of medical sciences and veterinary sciences, including lecturers, researchers, and graduate students attended the workshop.
