# Event Details - **Event Name**: Microbiology Intensive (2-Day Hands-On Laboratory Course) - **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 30 May, 2026 at 07:30 am – Sun, 31 May, 2026 at 04:30 pm (+01:00) - **Event Description**: Gain hands-on experience in essential microbiology techniques over two days, designed to build real lab confidence and practical skills.About this EventAbout This EventThis 2-day intensive microbiology course is designed to help participants with some previous laboratory experience develop practical microbiology skills in a real lab environment.BioGrad is a UK-based life sciences company operating across diagnostics, biobanking, clinical research, and regenerative medicine, including work in stem cell and advanced therapies.Delivered by BioGrad Education, a training provider that has supported 1,000+ learners in the last 2 years, this course reflects the techniques and standards used across microbiological research and industry laboratories.Training takes place in BioGrad’s modern, industry-standard laboratory facilities, giving you exposure to the equipment and environment used in real-world lab settings, something that sets this experience apart from typical classroom-based courses.Across two consecutive days, participants will gain hands-on experience in techniques essential for microbiological research, including bacterial culturing, antibiotic sensitivity testing, Gram staining, and microscopy.Unlike theory-heavy courses, this session is fully hands-on, allowing you to apply microbiology techniques under close supervision from experienced scientists.What You’ll LearnDuring the course, you will cover:Day 1 ( Sat 30th May: 09:30-16:00)Introduction to Microbiology and aseptic techniques.How to prepare and set up a laboratory space for microbiological research.Prepare nutrient broths and agar plates to cultivate different bacterial species.Design and carry out antibiotic sensitivity tests on different bacteria species using a host of different real world pharmaceutical antibiotics.Set up an overnight incubation of Escherichia coli and Bacillus subtilis cultures to preform Gram staining on day two.Day 2 ( Sun 31st May: 09:30-16:00)Observe bacterial growth from the overnight incubation, noting and analysing differential plate coverage and growth patterns.Measure areas of inhibition from antibiotic sensitivity tests and document and discuss bacterial-antibiotic interactions.Learn about the evolution and development of antibacterial resistance in modern microbiology.Perform Gram staining tests on the cultivated bacteria visualising the results and stained slides under a microscope.Use the data generated by antibiotic sensitivity tests and Gram staining to determine which antibiotics should be used to eliminate Gram-positive or Gram-negative bacteria.These are core techniques used in microbiological research and laboratory-based roles.Learning OutcomesBy the end of the course, you will be able to:Work more confidently in a microbiology laboratory settingPrepare media and culture bacteria using standard microbiology techniquesDesign and carry out antibiotic sensitivity testingAnalyse bacterial growth and inhibition patternsPerform Gram staining and interpret results using microscopyUnderstand how microbiology techniques apply to research posts, jobs, and laboratory projectsWho Should Attend?Undergraduate science participants looking to strengthen their microbiology skillsGraduates and postgraduates preparing for research posts or laboratory rolesAdult learners retraining in science with relevant prior lab experienceIndividuals looking to refresh their microbiology knowledge before starting a new role or research projectWhy This Course?100% hands-on microbiology trainingDelivered by active researchers and experienced scientistsLow participant-to-tutor ratio for close supervisionTraining in BioGrad’s modern, industry-standard laboratory facilitiesDesigned to build transferable microbiology skills for research, jobs, and laboratory projectsIncludes opportunities to interact closely with senior scientists and fellow participantsLinkedIn endorsement of your new skills and laboratory techniques may be provided on completionPrefer to view full details and other courses before booking?Visit the course page here: View Full Course Details -
