Automating Organoid Models and Assay Workflows

Tissue organoids and other 3D biological models are advancing biomedical research – including drug and target discovery – by capturing more of the relevant tissue biology. To get the most out of this research, scientists are creating complex, in vitro models that need to be deployed quickly using turnkey workflow solutions that align the automation to the biology. In this tutorial, we will describe an automated workflow to form, bioprint, culture, transfer, assay, and analyze tissue organoid models using the BioAssemblyBot® 400 bioprinter and ImageXpress® Confocal HT.ai High-Content Imaging System. In addition, we will explore different tissue models, including patient-derived cancer organoids (PDOs) from Cellesce, and discuss their use with various automated workflows. This session is sure to provide an engaging and in-depth discussion of advanced tissue modeling and assaying.
