On behalf of the Organisation Committee and the Scientific Board it is a great pleasure to invite you to the 5th International qPCR Symposium & Industrial Exhibition & Application Workshop to be held at the Center of Life Science in Freising Weihenstephan, Technische Universität München (Germany). The great international interest in the previous meetings (qPCR 2004, qPCR 2005, qPCR 2005 in Leipzig, qPCR 2007, qPCR 2009, and qPCR 2010 in Vienna] with up to 600 participants coming from 56 countries, and over 40 international companies in the qPCR Industrial Exhibition led us to the decision to repeat the Symposium in spring 2011.

We have set the date for the  qPCR 2011 Event  to 28th March - 1st April 2011. The event location is the central lecture hall complex and the foyer at TUM (Technical University of Munich) in Freising Weihenstephan, Germany. The TUM and the Biotech region around Munich is part of the largest Biotech cluster in Europe, located close to the Munich airport in the heart of Bavaria.

The focus of the qPCR 2011 Event will be on:   Molecular Diagnostics:   from single-cells  to  Next Generation Sequencing

Leading academic researchers and industrial contributors in the field will participate in the symposium, which will be an arena for fruitful discussions between researchers of different backgrounds. The Symposium Talks, Poster Sessions, Industrial Exhibition and associated qPCR Application Workshops offer an overview of the present knowledge and future developments in qPCR and gene expression measurement technology and its wide applications.

The symposium will focus on 60-70 lectures and more than 100 posters will be presented by internationally recognised experts in their field. The emphasis will be on unbiased, didactic information exchange. Internationally reknown speakers will be participating in a lively and exciting programme enabling the valuable exchange of information in the qPCR field. One third of the talks will be presented by selected invited speakers, one third will be selected from the submitted abstracts and one third will be presented by qPCR  related company R&D representatives. All scientific contributions will be published in the qPCR 2011 Symposium Proceedings.
