This DVD brings you the recording of the course on “Best Practices for Setting up Effective RNAi Screens” that took place on November 3, 2010. The course goes into details on how to design, set-up and run RNAi screens for various applications. The instructors provide information on how the screens are functioning in their facilities and offer advice on what has worked and not worked for them. The course is a valuable resource for scientists looking to design both low and high-throughput RNAi screens on a routine basis.

Escherichia coli has proven its worth as a protein expression platform. Currently, E.coli is not viewed so much as an ‘alternative’ platform, but as a viable choice for achieving high-level expression of human genes and proteins at a reasonable cost.

This DVD covers the progression of “creating a best of breed informatics organization” from the basics of biology and genetics to application of semantic technologies. Through modeling, case studies, and best practice examples, participants will learn techniques on how to combine data in a meaningful way.
