Digital PCR Made Easy: Genomics Core organizing seminars, demos, and Q&A sessions

Genomics Core is hosting in-person presentations and demos for the QIAcuity and Absolute Q systems digital PCR (dPCR) platforms. dPCR enables absolute quantification of nucleic acids at unparalleled accuracy and precision, compared with other PCR-based quantification methods such as real-time PCR.

The QIAcuity presentation is scheduled for March 23rd, while the Absolute Q presentation will take place on April 5th. These events provide an opportunity for researchers and interested individuals to learn more about the capabilities and features of the systems and to see them in action. Attendees can also ask questions and engage with experts in the field.

Please RSVP to Dr. Taegun Kwon for more details about the session and a 1:1 meeting with the experts if interested.

Microscopy Core upgrades Keyence BZ-X800 with a new Cy3 filter cube for enhanced imaging capabilities

Microscopy Core has updated its Keyence BZ-X800 microscope with a new Cy3/TRITC filter cube, adding to its existing options of DAPI, EGFP (FITC/Cy2), mCherry/TX-Red, and Cy5. This upgrade will provide researchers with greater flexibility in their imaging capabilities and allow for more precise and accurate visualization of samples labeled with the Cy3/TRITC fluorophore. With five filter cube options, the Keyence microscope is now even more versatile and capable of meeting a wider range of research needs.

Preclinical Imaging Symposium on March 17

The first-ever Preclinical Symposium in HSC will take place on March 17th, which will bring together leading experts in the field to discuss the latest developments and applications of preclinical imaging. The symposium can be attended in-person (breakfast and lunch provided) or virtually, and registration is free of charge.

This event celebrates the major investment HSC has made in preclinical imaging that brings state-of-the-art (CT, MRI, PET, and SPECT) technologies to research scientists in North Texas. This an exciting opportunity to learn how these technologies can facilitate your research and network with fellow scientists doing groundbreaking work using preclinical imaging.
