Workshop, The General DNA Technology

March 13, 2022, 3:45 p.m.

The Scientific Research Center (SRC) is pleased to inform you of planning a workshop on General DNA Technology for postgraduate students and staff members who are interested in these technologies.

The main objective is to get postgraduate students acquainted with the fundamentals of this technology ( Theoretical and Practical ) that will help them to run their research projects independently.

It is important to mention that the workshop will mainly involve practical lectures on this technology, i.e. the candidate will perform practical aspects in person under the supervision of the SRC staff members. 

 

Candidates who are keen to enroll in this scientific event can register by filling in the following form:
