Thermo Fisher Scientific, the world leader in serving science, announces it will bring Fisher Scientific “Science World” to the Palais de la Musique et des Congrès in Strasbourg on 29 September 2016.

Science World is a well-established and popular event that began in the UK in the 1990’s. It showcases the latest in laboratory innovations with product demonstrations and is ideal for anyone who works in or around a laboratory.

This will be the inaugural Science World event in France and follows the huge success seen by introducing the concept to Germany with events in Berlin and Düsseldorf over the last couple of years.

Christophe Costa, Fisher Scientific Sales Director in France said “We continue to intensify our focus in Europe through the Fisher Scientific channel. Strasbourg signifies an important catchment for us and means that we can bring our flagship event closer to our customers and serve them better”.

Science World will have a comprehensive seminar programme covering over 16 topics.

Yves Coppens, one of the France’s leading specialists in human evolution, will be delivering a keynote speech focusing on the history of man and giving some ideas of the current situation of the universe, solar system, earth, life and man, providing some insight into their future.

David Lowe, who is best known for his appearances on the popular French television show “On n’est pas que des Cobayes” will also be delivering a programme of scientific experiments on the day.

Genome AnalysisGenomics, the study of genomes, includes functional genomics, evolutionary genomics and comparative genomics. There are many genomic technologies such as DNA sequencing of whole genomes, computational biology and bioinformatics. DNA and nucleic acids must be isolated and concentrated from cells for analysis with kits, automated analyzers and software. Other useful technologies for studying genomics include PCR, microarrays and electrophoresis.Gene Expression and Molecular CloningMolecular cloning is a set of techniques that utilizes vectors to transfer recombinant DNA into host cells and is an essential tool for investigating the expression of genes and proteins in bacterial or mammalian cells. A variety of vectors optimized for gene cloning and expression in a range of host organisms are available, alongside competent cells for genetic replication. Here, you can explore a range of molecular tools, high-quality genomic and cDNA libraries, premade clones, transformation and transfection reagents and mutagenesis or gene expression detection assays and expression arrays.
