SPPU to setup RT-PCR testing facility
The Center for Molecular Diagnostics and Research at Savitribai Phule Pune University (SPPU) will soon set up an independent RT-PCR testing facility on the campus. The decision comes in the wake of rising Covid-19 cases in Pune. SPPU administration has urged its faculty and students, both on campus and at affiliated colleges, to volunteer for the cause. Students and faculty with experience of working at bio-safety labs, familiar with conducting RT-PCR tests or molecular testing techniques, will be encouraged, though others are also open to volunteer. All required training will be provided before the volunteers are deployed at the testing centre. For registration, visit https://forms.gle/utdrmx3UbR1aZEVX9
