Training on Genomic Technologies

In the Centre we perform lectures and practical classes in the following areas:

• Genetic engineering
• Biotechnology
• Gene Cloning
• Mapping of genes and genomes
• Genotyping
• Isolation of DNA/RNA, proteins
• Sequencing of DNA/cDNA
• Bioinformatics
• Biostatistics
• Population analysis
• Phylogenetic analysis
• Evolutionary analysis

Intellectual and material-technical base:

The Center has a close relationship with international organizations for the study and conservation of genetic resources (IPGRI, ICARDA, UNEP, GEF), and with genome centers at Texas A&M University and the Vienna Biocenter in training methods on genomic technologies. The Centre is a scientific and educational base for teaching students and graduate students of biological faculty of the National University of Uzbekistan, at the Center are trained young specialists of medical institutions.

Annually in the Center are trained young specialists of the research institutes of Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Turkmenistan and Tajikistan. The staff of the Center are certificated specialists who were trained in international genome centers, have long experience of teaching activity in the field of molecular genetics, genetic engineering, medical genetics, biotechnology, etc.
