Hack and build a thermocycler
Workshop led by Alessandro Volpato and Mindaugas Gapsevicius

Any research lab should include a thermocycler, an apparatus for 
amplifying segments of DNA via the polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The 
workshop includes an introduction to PCR mechanism, an understanding of 
the apparatus, hacking and upgrading a DIY version of it. The technical 
and theoretical part of the workshop will be supplemented by a list of 
projects using a PCR method.
