Reliable Cell Preparations Begin with Automated STEMprep™ Tissue Processing

Join us for a special Lunch & Learn workshop with STEMCELL Technologies on Tuesday, November 17, from 12:00–1:00 PM!
Workshop Title:
Reliable Cell Preparations Begin with Automated STEMprep™ Tissue Processing
Guest Speakers:
Amanda Durkin, PhD – Senior Product Manager, Immunology, Marketing, STEMCELL Technologies
Grace Poon, PhD – Senior Scientist, Research and Development, STEMCELL Technologies
About the Workshop:
The quality of tissue preparation plays an important role in the success of downstream cellular analyses. In this workshop, discover how the STEMprep™ Tissue Dissociator provides a standardized, temperature-controlled approach to generating high-quality single-cell suspensions with minimal hands-on time.
The speakers will walk through the system’s key features, demonstrate end-to-end workflows, and share performance data from mouse tissue dissociation kits for tumor, lung, brain, liver, and spleen. They’ll also introduce upcoming mouse kidney and intestine dissociation kits.
Whether you’re working in immunology or cancer research, come learn how automated tissue processing can support your research!
