Holographic Time-lapse Imaging Cytometry Seminar at UCSF
When: Thursday, Feb 18th, 2:00 - 5:00pm
Where: UCSF Mission Bay Campus, Genetech Hall N114
600 16th St, San Francisco, CA
This event will highlight many applications of new time-lapse label-free
imaging cytometry, a technology based on quantitative kinetic analysis of
phase images of unlabeled cells. Technology developers and expert users
will define phase imaging parameters associated with specific biology
(mitosis, cell growth and various cell phenotypes) and provide an overview
of diverse applications, from monitoring the effects of pharmaceutical
compounds on tumor cells in 2D and 3D in vitro models to the use of
holographic imaging coupled with machine learning algorithms to
accurately detect changes in oncogenic phenotypes of both patient-derived
and engineered human melanoma lines with single cell resolution.
Agenda:
2:00 - 2:15pm - Opening and welcome, Dr. Robert Judson, UCSF Sandler
Faculty Fellow and NIH Early Independence Award Fellow.
2:15 - 2:45pm HoloMonitor M4 – holographic imaging cytometer for real-
time kinetic label-free live-cell analysis of adherent cells, Mikael Sebesta,
Head of R&D, Phase Holographic Imaging AB.
2.45 – 3:15pm HoloMonitor M4 – a versatile, significant and welcomed tool
in pharmaceutical compound development, Ed Luther, Core Imaging and
Cytometry Facility, Northeastern University.
3.15 – 4:00pm Simultaneous label-free detection of proliferative,
migratory, apoptotic & senescent cell phenotypes in human melanomas,
Dr. Robert Judson, UCSF.
4:00 – 4.20pm HoloMonitor M4 – A Core’s Perspective, Dr. Felix Bestvater,
Head of the Light Microscopy Facility, German Cancer Research Center
(DKFZ), Heidelberg, Germany.
4:20 – 5:00pm HoloMonitor M4 demonstration and discussions over
refreshments and hors-d'oeuvres.
