Description
What happens when the serologists meet the DNA Dark Side? STAR WARS! Participants in this Jedi training will have a chance to hone their serological skills before they jump to hyper drive and enter the next century where DNA is attempting to take over. Using feedback technology, participants will be part of the action, having the opportunity to actively participate in the session by "activating the laser" to indicate their practice skills in serological problem solving and newly learned knowledge of molecular methods. Then they will be presented with the DNA data to aid in evaluation of the case study. Who will win the Star Wars battle? Will you go over to the Dark Side?


  • Discuss how DNA testing can be a useful addition to complex antibody workups.
  • Name a blood group system where silencing mutations affect the predicted phenotype.
  • Provide an example of a false-positive genotype.
