LS2.2: Applications and advances in High Content Imaging
Session co-organisers: Gabor Csucs, Rainer Pepperkok, Steve Briddon
High content imaging involves automated collection and analysis of images to provide quantitative data on a range of functional and morphological changes in cells. It has becoming widely used as a tool for, amongst other things, screening of drug candidates, fragments and RNAi. This symposium welcomes contributions which cover advances in both image collection and analysis in high content imaging, as well as new applications for this approach.
