Accelerating Data and Throughput in Spatial Imaging: A Core Facility Perspective
A microscopy core facility director shares how the Orion™ platform opened a fast, low-run-cost route for FFPE samples, and the workflow practices that keep a high-volume histology lab moving.
In this webinar, Zbigniew Mikulski, PhD — Director of Microscopy and Instructor at the La Jolla Institute for Immunology — offers a core facility perspective on accelerating data and throughput in spatial imaging. He shares best practices drawn from more than 18 different projects.
A central thread is FFPE. Mikulski describes how the Orion™ platform helped his facility reach a fast, low-run-cost solution for working with formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) samples. He sets that against the scale of the operation he runs: a core that manages up to 15,000 histology slides a year.
Beyond his own results, Mikulski discusses practices that other labs might adopt to further improve workflow efficiency and cost-effectiveness. It is a practical, core-facility view of what it takes to run spatial imaging at volume.
