COBISS.SI-ID: 512259384Uroš Potočnik was a president of the organizing committee of the 6th congress of the Slovenian Genetic Society and 6th meeting of the Slovenian Society of Human Genetics. More than 160 slovenian genetesists and distiinguished scientiss from abroad have attended this meeting.

COBISS.SI-ID: 71104257We have developed high-resolution melting curve (HRM) analysis assays for high-throughput, accurate and cost effective genotyping of mutations in NOD2/CARD15, the most important gene associated with Inflammatory bowel disease. Using combination of the two genotype calling algorithms, »Tm calling« in »gene scanning«, we have genotyped 640 IBD patients and found 98% concordance with genotypes determined with the reference RFLP method.
