Abstract
Our presenter Jonathan Nowak, will discuss representative multiplexed assays for protein and RNA profiling built in the lab and discuss the necessary elements to operationalize this type of testing in a translational research laboratory. He will also explore the advantages of different assays and key considerations for ensuring consistently high data quality spanning hundreds to thousands of specimens.
Learning Objectives
-
Identify the benefits of digital, quantitative tumor microenvironment profiling over traditional qualitative approaches.
-
Explore the different types of protein and RNA spatial profiling approaches that are compatible with formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue.
-
Review the laboratory and computational requirements for designing and analyzing multiplex immunofluorescence assays.
