Level Up Your 3D Cell Culture: From Research to High Throughput



In the last several years, multiple research publications have shown increased value of using 3D cell models compared to traditional 2D systems. Although considered by many as a more representative model of in vivo biology, setup of 3D models can be more challenging, especially when the throughput is further increased. This course will provide an overview of scaffold and scaffold free techniques and key optimizations for increased throughput through imaging technologies and automation. We will offer tips and tricks for improving cell seeding, handling, processing and use of high content imaging and analysis for 3D applications to address the need of higher throughput demands.



Who Should Attend:

• Anyone new to 3D


• Those performing 3D at a research scale looking to increase throughput

How You Will Benefit From This Course?

We hope this course will provide educational information and practical techniques to move the valuable, more predictive 3D cell culture models from more manual research-based work to a more automated, mid to high throughput environment.

Course Topics:

• 3D culture models


• scaffold free vs. hydrogel matrix models


• high throughput imaging


• high throughput liquid handling


• bioprinting


• organoids


• screening
