Molecular Biology Techniques Training

Molecular biology techniques training — DNA/RNA extraction, PCR, qPCR, gel electrophoresis, restriction digests, ligation, and basic cloning workflows.

What is Molecular Biology Techniques Training?

This programme makes you confident with the core molecular toolkit. By the end, you can extract nucleic acids cleanly, design primers, run a successful PCR, troubleshoot a failing gel, and walk through a basic cloning workflow without supervision.

What you will learn

Genomic DNA, plasmid DNA, and total RNA extraction
Spectrophotometric quantification (Nanodrop) and quality assessment
Primer design principles, PCR setup, and cycling optimisation
qPCR / RT-PCR theory and reaction setup
Agarose and SDS-PAGE gel electrophoresis with documentation
Restriction digestion, ligation, and bacterial transformation basics

Who this is for

Students and professionals from biotechnology, genetics, microbiology, biochemistry, pharmacy, and life sciences. Particularly suited to anyone whose coursework covered molecular biology in theory but never enough at the bench.

What you take away

NTHRYS training certificate listing molecular techniques covered
A practical record showing primer design, gel images, and analysis
Working confidence with the molecular toolkit recruiters look for
Foundation skills directly transferable to academic and industry roles
