Optimizing Kinetic Proliferation Assays Webinar
Wed, Apr 15, 2020
Presenter: Joe Clayton, Senior Principal Scientist
In this webinar we will provide a detailed review of available methods for measuring cell proliferation, with a particular focus on recent assay innovations, including both 2D and 3D formats. This information will assist researchers in selecting the most appropriate and effective system for measuring cell proliferation based on a broad range of factors. Additionally, we will cover important considerations for setting up and running cell proliferation assays, including techniques for improving the accuracy and reproducibility of results.
3D Model Systems Webinar
Wed, Apr 29, 2020
Presenter: Joe Clayton, Senior Principal Scientist
The use of three‐dimensional (3D) culture models is rapidly expanding due to their recognition as representing more structurally and physiologically relevant models of in vivo biology. 3D cell culture assays attempt to mimic the cellular microenvironment including in vivo extracellular matrix (ECM) composition. In this webinar we will cover the advantages and limitations of the various culture models, assay formats, and imaging approaches. Attendees should gain knowledge on setting up and optimizing a broad range of 3D assays that are the best fit for their particular application. Topics Covered: 3D culture models, scaffold free vs. hydrogel matrix models, overview of the generation and use of organoids, molecular, biochemical and imaging assay methods.
