Hands-On Workshop on PCR and Sanger Sequencing

Hands-On Workshop: PCR and Sanger Sequencing at RUAS The Department of Oral & Maxillofacial Pathology and Oral Microbiology successfully organized a hands-on workshop on "Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) and Sanger Sequencing" from July 2nd to 4th, 2025. This workshop aimed to enhance practical molecular biology skills for all participants.

The program featured comprehensive theoretical sessions combined with extensive laboratory training. Participants first learned the fundamental principles of PCR and Sanger sequencing through interactive lectures and presentations. Following this, guided laboratory sessions allowed interns to actively perform DNA extraction, PCR amplification, gel electrophoresis, and prepare samples for sequencing.

The workshop concluded with a dedicated session on data analysis and the interpretation of sequencing results, ensuring participants gained a comprehensive understanding of the entire workflow.
