Good Pipetting Practice Academy

Accurate pipetting is essential in molecular biology, cell culture, and other life science experiments because even small volume errors can cause significant variability in results, leading to failed assays, inconsistent data, and wasted resources. Proper pipetting techniques help reduce experimental error, improve reproducibility, and save valuable research time.

This webinar series is ideal for bench scientists, lab technicians, research associates, and principal investigators who regularly perform liquid handling tasks. It’s especially valuable for researchers facing challenges with assay variability, labs implementing standardized pipetting workflows, and teams working with sensitive, quantitative, or regulated assays.

The academy covers key areas such as selecting the best pipettes and tips for specific applications, mastering pipetting techniques to minimize errors, implementing ergonomic practices to reduce injury risk, maintaining and calibrating pipettes per ISO 8655 standards, understanding pipetting metrology concepts to improve data quality, and handling challenging liquids like viscous or volatile samples.

You can register for individual webinars based on your specific learning needs or attend the full series for a comprehensive understanding of pipetting best practices. Each session is designed to be self-contained but collectively provides a robust foundation in pipetting theory and practical skills.

By applying expert guidance from these webinars, you’ll learn how to select appropriate pipetting tools, execute optimal pipetting techniques, prevent ergonomic injuries, maintain pipette calibration for consistent performance, calculate pipetting uncertainty, and handle difficult liquids effectively—resulting in more accurate and reproducible experimental data.

The content is tailored for both beginners who want to learn foundational pipetting skills and experienced researchers seeking to troubleshoot variability issues or refine their liquid handling techniques.

Live attendance allows you to engage directly with liquid handling experts by asking questions about your specific workflows, samples, or challenges. It also provides real-time interaction and practical tips that can be immediately applied at the bench, enhancing your learning experience beyond generic tutorials.

Registration is simple—visit the webinar landing page and sign up for one or more sessions that fit your schedule. Links are available to register for individual webinars covering topics relevant to your pipetting needs.

For each webinar you attend, you will receive a certificate of completion.

Yes, one session specifically focuses on pipette calibration and maintenance in compliance with ISO 8655 standards, which is critical for laboratories subject to regulatory audits or quality control processes.
