    Description
    This advanced course provides skills in the performance of the polymerase chain reaction (PCR), a technique commonly used to amplify DNA in forensics and the biotechnology laboratory. Instruction focuses on understanding the process; potential applications of DNA amplification; and the skills related to the setup, performance, and evaluation of the technique's outcome. The course assumes some prior knowledge of solution preparation and gel electrophoresis.
