This webinar shines a spotlight on cell-based and biochemical high-throughput screening in 1536 well plates. Supported by BMG LABTECH, the webinar will take place on 30 October at 4:00pm (GMT).
Individualised therapies that target the specific genetic features of tumours have the potential to transform cancer diagnosis, treatment and care. However, several challenges remain before these approaches can be widely used in the clinic.
Explore the full kinetic and epitope diversity of large antibody libraries with high throughput Array SPR (Surface Plasmon Resonance).
For many years, screening assays have been based on high-content imaging systems. However, recent advances in the field of flow cytometry have meant that flow-based assays are now more prevalent. The power of flow cytometry to utilise multiple lasers, multiple fluorochromes and multiplexed assays has meant that assays are not…
Researchers have developed a see-through, dual-layered, mesh EEG device which is capable of measuring the electrical activity of individual neurons...
Biologics are the fastest growing class of therapeutics in the biopharmaceutical industry. A key driver for this growth is success with anti-cancer immunotherapeutics such as checkpoint modulation, adoptive cell therapy and bispecific T-cell engagers. While these approaches use different tactics to attack tumours, they often employ monoclonal antibodies to target…
Scientists have shared a new method that aims to accelerate the discovery of chemical compounds that inhibit a particular enzyme implicated in several cancers.
In this In-Depth Focus: hunting mysterious ‘Dark Matter Genome’ towards rewriting the rules of human genetic diseases, and enabling biomarker discovery at single-cell resolution
This webinar, held on 28 June 2018, illustrated the optimisation of hits derived from a target-agnostic phenotypic screen, using a strategy based on combining bioactivity profiling and reference compound characterisation. Keynote speaker Arsenio Nueda, Head of Molecular Biology at Almirall, responded as follows to questions posed during the webinar.
This Assays In-Depth Focus looks at applications of high content screening in autophagy, and complex biology for the precision medicine era.
Stem cell-based technologies lay the basis for pioneering approaches in drug screening, toxicology testing, and regenerative medicine. The constant supply of high cell numbers in consistent quality needs scalable culture systems and standardised process conditions.

The data presented in this application note demonstrates how SMARTer ICELL8 Single-Cell System can be used to generate high-quality RNA-seq libraries that provide full-length transcript sequence information from hundreds of single cells in parallel...
Assessing targets that are unable – or rather, extremely difficult – to reach pharmacologically, has prevented researchers from achieving desired clinical successes, most notably in the realm of cancer research. However, many advances are being made to shedlight on these difficult yet desirable target areas.
