Tips and Best Practices for Improving Cell-Based Assay Performance
Thursday, March 19, 2009, 9:00 AM Eastern Time (ET)
Today's scientists are becoming more reliant on the versatility and performance of cell-based assays. A critical parameter in achieving quality data is understanding how the environment in which the cells are grown can impact cellular physiology and ultimately, the assay. Such factors as microplate and growth surface type, the microenvironment in which the cells will be grown and physiologic stresses the cells are asked to undergo as part of the assay, all play an important role in the final outcome. This live, on-line seminar will cover ways to enhance your cell-based assay performance. Topics to be discussed include:
Speaker: Mark Rothenberg, Ph.D.
Mark Rothenberg, Ph.D., is an Application Scientist at Corning Life Sciences and has over twenty years of experience in assay development. He received his doctorate from Emory University in the area of Cell and Developmental biology. Before joining Corning, he worked as a senior scientist in two firms in the area metabolic disease.
