Continue readingMaking the most out of the ultraviolet laser: How BD Horizon Brilliant™ Ultraviolet Dyes drive discovery
News & EventAt the beginning of the new millennium, researchers had reached a plateau in the number of parameters that could be analysed in a flow cytometry experiment. This was due to the limited number of fluorochromes available and the overlaps that occurred in their excitation spectra with the available lasers. Then the Nobel Prize-winning discovery of […]

News & EventThe COVID-19 pandemic is an ongoing global challenge. It is a mild to moderate respiratory tract infection in most people but can cause life-threatening respiratory failure or persistent debilitating symptoms in a subset of patients.1 The mechanisms of protective immunity in mild cases and the pathogenesis of severe COVID-19 remain unclear. It has been proposed […]
Continue readingWebinar: Single-cell profiling of human tumors and inflamed tissues reveals therapeutically targetable tumor-unique immune subsets
News & EventAbstract: The composition of the immune infiltrate in the human tumor microenvironment is a critical determinant of disease progression. Immunotherapies to treat cancer have achieved remarkable successes, but an inherent weakness of current treatment approaches is that the targeted immune subsets are not exclusive to tumors. In an effort to identify tumor-unique immune features that […]
