Workshop Summary
Microarray Analysis in a Clean Room setting:  What Makes the Perfect Microarray
Advances in microarray technology allow the massively parallel acquisition of high quality genetic and proteomic information.  This workshop focuses on the crucial steps in the creation of the perfect high quality microarray from experimental design through microarray printing; probe generation and image analysis.   Recent advances in cleanroom technology provide affordable access to state-of-the-art microarray science in a completely integrated environment. A working state-of-the-art microarray cleanroom will be demonstrated throughout the workshop.
