DNASTAR Lasergene Software Workshop

About

DNASTAR offers software solutions for molecular biology, protein analysis, and genomics. In this workshop, attendees will be presented with an overview of the applications within the Lasergene suite. The instructors will use the latest software version, Lasergene 19, and demonstration data from real experiments to provide tutorials for various workflows, including: cloning and primer design, Sanger sequence alignment, multiple sequence alignment, protein analyses, and next generation sequence assembly and analysis. Q&A to follow.

Account Manager, DNASTAR Carl-Erik Tornqvist is an Account Manager at DNASTAR. Carl-Erik earned a BS in Genetics and Plant Biology from the University of California – Berkeley and a PhD in Plant Breeding and Plant Genetics from the University of Wisconsin – Madison, where he studied the genetics of plant development, with an emphasis on cell wall formation. As a postdoctoral researcher at UW-Madison, Carl-Erik studied the genetics of flowering time in switchgrass, a biofuel feedstock. Carl-Erik used DNASTAR software during his postdoc and soon after joined DNASTAR as a Sales Manager.
