Retaining Cell Viability and Morphology in IPSCs: Vital Tools for Research

Speaker

Abstract

From drug discovery to organoid modeling of disease, stem cells are increasingly being used in research as a vital tool for scientific investigation.

Due to the specialized nature of stem cells, their maintenance and culture is more intensive than most cell lines. For this reason, it is important that reliable solutions for the culture and maintenance of these cell types are readily and widely available.

Key webinar discussion topics include:

  • How to pick specific iPSC colonies consistently and reliably for further testing or culture while maintaining high levels of cell health
  • How to monitor delicate iPSC line culture morphology and growth characteristics without removing plates from the incubator
  • The skills needed to use minimal sample volumes required to characterize precious cell types, with minimal attrition for downstream requirements
