Join our upcoming hybrid seminar at Oregon Health & Science University to dive deep into the nCounter® Analysis System. This reliable gene expression platform allows for multiplexing up to 800 targets using direct detection technology. With a straightforward workflow that requires just 15 minutes of hands-on time for most panels, and an automated benchtop system, you can expect highly reproducible data in less than 24 hours.

During the session, we will explore the mechanics, applications, and impacts of the nCounter platform through various case studies. We’ll also provide details on how to access the system available through the OHSU Integrated Genomics Laboratory. Come discover why this technology has been featured in more than 7,000 peer-reviewed publications.

Agenda:
  • nCounter Technology Overview: Bailey Longoni, Regional Account Manager – nCounter, NanoString Technologies.
  • Classifying AML Tumor Cell State to Identify Responsiveness to Venetoclax-Based Therapy: Steve Kurtz, Ph.D., Research Associate Professor, Oregon Health & Science University.
  • IGL Training and Services Overview: Jinah Kim Ph.D., Core Scientist, Oregon Health & Science University.
  • Robust performance on difficult sample types including FFPE, blood, and biofluids.
  • Accelerated turn-around times shorten time to market and/or publication.
  • Technical reproducibility on low quality RNA including FFPE and non-tissue samples.
  • Extensive menu of ready-to-ship panels designed with input from industry leading experts in the field.
