  • “Accelerate Spatial Biology: Rapid, High-Precision Multiplex IHC with SignalStar™ by Cell Signaling Technologies 

Time: 12 pm-1 pm 
  

Accelerate discoveries in spatial biology by 70% with SignalStar™ Multiplex IHC, which offers optimized panels for efficient results in just two days and eliminates time-consuming optimization and validation processes. Join our seminar led by our Senior Global Product Trainer and discover this innovative technology that enhances spatial biology research by amplifying cellular protein signals in FFPE tissue samples. Gain rapid insights, visual clarity with up to 8 (or more!) target detections, enhanced precision, immediate start with validated protocols, and seamless integration into existing fluorescence imagers with SignalStar Multiplex IHC.

Speaker info: Dr. Theisgen completed a Diploma in Biochemistry and a PhD in Molecular Medicine at the University of Halle (Germany). She joined CST in 2018 as Manager for the European Technical Support Team and also worked as a Field Application Scientist for two years, where she gained extensive technical knowledge of the CST product portfolio.

In 2022, she took over the position as Global Product Trainer. Since then, she has conducted numerous technical trainings for customers, but also for distribution partners worldwide. Her experience with various antibody applications enables her to support customers in their research with troubleshooting, target selection, protocol development and data interpretation.

  • “Next-Generation Reagents for Reliable Multiplex IHC/IF” by Vector Laboratories 

Time: 1pm-2pm 

Vector Laboratories, with a 50-year legacy, is a global leader in immunohistochemistry, immunofluorescence, glycobiology, and bioconjugation. Our innovative products, including the VECTASTAIN® Elite ABC Kit, VectaShield® Antifade Mounting Medium, and TrueVIEW® Autofluorescence Quenching Reagent, are widely used in research, cited in over 350,000 publications. We now introduce VectaPlex™ and Glysite™ Explorer. VectaPlex™ enables efficient antibody removal from FFPE tissue sections without damaging tissue or antigens. Glysite™ Explorer offers a comprehensive kit for spatial glycan detection near proteins, supporting advanced studies of protein glycosylation in various sample types.
