In this webinar, discover how scientists use spatial biology approaches to investigate human development.

Developmental biology seeks to document the path from embryo to organism, where cell-to-cell interactions and the spatial organization of tissues influence developmental mechanisms. Consequently, researchers employ spatial biology techniques to better understand human development. 

In this webinar brought to you by The Scientist’s Creative Services Team, Xiaofei Li and Stefania Giacomello will discuss the methods they use to acquire spatial information about human spinal cord development and more.

Topics to be covered 

• Using single-cell and spatial -omics techniques to generate a developmental cell atlas of the human spinal cord

Xiaofei Li, PhD
Assistant Professor
Department of Neurobiology Care Sciences and Society

Stefania Giacomello, PhD
Associate Professor

Join us for an exclusive webinar with special guest speakers! Payal Patel and Julia Kaiser will join us from the Burke Neurological Institute to present their work with subcerebral projection neurons.🧠

They used the WOLF NanoCellect cell sorter to gently purify retrogradely labeled whole-cell SCPN subpopulations and performed differential gene expression analysis using single-cell transcriptomics. Their results highlight molecular specification of cortico-brainstem vs. corticospinal projections well before these axons reach their appropriate segmental target and suggest a broad molecular program over SCPN axon targeting to distinct subcerebral targets early in development.

Webinar highlights:

• The brainstem-spinal transition zone, which is molecularly established early in development
• Experimental scheme of purifying whole cell SCPN and CSN subpopulations using the WOLF Cell Sorter for single cell RNA-sequencing

"Exploring the Wonders of Life”

The LS2 Annual Meeting brings together scientists from all nations and backgrounds to explore the large spectrum united under the umbrella of Life Sciences.

The Lausanne Genomics Days is a 2-days international conference meant to share advances in genomics and their impact on biological research, applied to a wide range of topics.

In 2024, omics will not only be GENomics so we decided we should rename the event Lausanne Omics Days

Immune Activation, Effector Functions and Immune Tolerance with a special focus on Allergy and Autoimmunity

As ever, immune regulation is the hottest issue in basic and clinical sciences. There is no doubt that we need to get together and share our new findings in an inspiring environment. With an outstanding list of speakers in this field, WIRM will be one of the key scientific event of the year 2024, being big enough to learn from other disciplines and small enough to personally meet the experts.

Inspiring the Future of Chemistry and Life Sciences.

Ilmac has its origins in the Swiss trade fair for international laboratory, measurement and automation technology in chemistry, which has been held since 1959. Today, the chemistry and life science brand networks the industry both physically and digitally.

With its value proposition “Inspiring the Future of Chemistry and Life Sciences”, it encourages the development of new ideas and solutions and presents trends and innovations from research and industry at significant locations such as Basel and Lausanne.
