SUMMARY:Seminar with Atrandi Biosciences (virtual event)
DESCRIPTION:Join us for this educational event around Semi-Permeable Capsule Technology and how the UF ICBR Gene Expression and Genotyping Core (GE) can assist with projects for metagenomics\, environmental microbial\, or translational. \nRecent advances in single-cell assays and sequencing workflows have increased the demand for higher-throughput methods that improve sensitivity while maintaining accuracy and resolution in complex biological samples. Although plate-based approaches and droplet microfluidics enable scalable single-cell compartmentalization\, they remain limited by incompatibilities with multi-step workflows and constrained reagent exchange. Atrandi’s semi-permeable capsule (SPC) technology addresses these challenges by enabling scalable multi-step reactions while preserving single-cell resolution and reducing assay and sequencing costs. SPCs compartmentalize single cells\, nuclei\, or beads within an aqueous core. \nAgenda: \n\n12:00-12:40 Dr. Stephanie Gao’s Talk ““Resolve Microbial Diversity\, One Cell at a Time: Innovative Semi-Permeable Capsules (SPCs) for Single-Cell Microbial Whole Genome Sequencing”\n12:40-12:50 Kristof O’Connor “New Product Roadmap”\n12:50-1pm Question/Answer Session\n\nTeams Meeting Link: https://teams.microsoft.com/meet/322076583012003?p=SujYBrPxjglcYYYSNJ \nPasscode: cn9t5Xp9

SUMMARY:Expanding the Dimensions of Discovery: Single-Cell Sequencing and Multiomics with Element AVITI24
DESCRIPTION:Reveal more complete biological insights by simultaneously profiling RNA\, protein\, and cellular morphology across millions of cells in a single run. AVITI24 makes this depth of multidimensional analysis accessible through streamlined workflows and minimal hands-on time. \nIn this seminar we’ll share how Direct In Sample Sequencing (DISS)\, sequences RNA directly from within intact cells\, enabling powerful applications such as CRISPR guide RNA detection and laying the groundwork for future capabilities including whole transcriptome and spatial analysis from tissues. This session will introduce the AVITI24 system and its multiomics chemistries and showcase how researchers are leveraging this approach to explore complex biology with unprecedented depth and efficiency. \n/// REGISTER NOW ///\nEvent Flyer \nPresenter:\nSolomon Hailu\, PhD
