    It’s been several years since I personally did PCR, but back in the day over a couple of decades I ran thousands of PCR assays, which is why I’m not sure I’d the would be awesome or horrible.https://twitter.com/MHendr1cks/status/1235977827314552833 …

    A disaster movie where it comes down to troubleshooting someone's PCR would be awesome.

        Riffing on this, I now realize the scene could be like a computer hacking scene, all furious typing of potential primers, testing in silico simulations. Heck, maybe they could even make those fancy gesture-driven giant computer screens part of the suspense.😂

        #PCR these days is so much more predictable and reliable which is why I really don’t understand the lack of being able to test?😳. Just order primers. Is it lack of control samples? Can someone explain. Please?
