WEIGHING: Weighing precision management: Reduce risk and increase USP41 compliance
Hear from A&D Instruments’ Senior Product Manager of Laboratory Solutions, Jennifer Block, as she provides an overview of the innovative solutions found in the A&D Apollo series of analytical laboratory balances. In this webinar, Block will explain how electronically controlled load (ECL) technology allows automatic precision assessment at the touch of a button, without the need for external weights and service bodies that cost time, money, and can introduce uncertainties.
Thursday, January 14: 17:00 GMT / 18:00 CET / 09:00 PST / 12:00 EST
SINGLE-CELL SEQUENCING: Sample preparation and enrichment for single-cell sequencing assays
Dr. Nicole Abreu, Science and Technology Advisor at 10x Genomics, will discuss the basics of sample preparation, sample cleanup, and enrichment methods to obtain quality data from single-cell sequencing assays. Additionally, we will share how to leverage 10x Genomics multiplexed approaches to profile gene expression, antigen-binding specificities, and classify immune cell types.
Wednesday, January 20: 16:00 GMT / 17:00 CET / 08:00 PST / 11:00 EST
PEDIATRIC DIAGNOSTICS: The importance of pediatric reference intervals for diagnostic testing
Join Dr. Khosrow Adeli, Head of Clinical Biochemistry at the University of Toronto, as he discusses how to best overcome the challenges involved in establishing reference intervals for proper clinical interpretation of pediatric lab results, aiding the diagnosis and treatment of pediatric patients (P.A.C.E and AACC accredited webinar).
Wednesday, January 20: 16:00 GMT / 17:00 CET / 08:00 PST / 11:00 EST
COVID-19 VACCINATIONS: SARS-CoV-2 serology testing in the setting of vaccination
Hear from Dr. Angela Rasmussen, virologist at Siemens Healthineers, as she details how serology testing is necessary to understand whether vaccination results in seroconversion and a sustained response in each person, especially for high-risk/high-exposure people, describe how clinical serology testing is relatively low cost and high throughput, with fast turnaround and broad population access, and explain why this testing will be necessary to confirm seroconversion and a sustained response of neutralizing antibody. (P.A.C.E and AACC accredited webinar).
Friday, January 22: 16:00 GMT / 17:00 CET / 08:00 PST / 11:00 EST
