Your answers will help us take the pulse of the real-time PCR community. Submissions are anonymous and results will be freely available via a web poster. This survey will be “open” until January 15, 2004. Results will be presented at the ABRF 2004 annual meeting in Portland, OR, Feb 28-Mar 2, 2004 and will be available on line by April 1, 2004. We think it will be worth your time to participate in this study.
