Advancing understanding of Alzheimer’s disease using multiomics spatial biology

November 7, 2024
17:00 - 18:00 CET | 11:00 am - 12:00 pm EST

Overview

The complexity of biological systems and diseases, such as Alzheimer’s disease, necessitates spatial multiomics techniques to gain a holistic understanding of cell-cell interactions and communication. A singular approach to spatial multiomics is possible with MALDI Imaging, including label-free imaging of small molecules, lipids, drugs, and glycans. Additionally, with technology developed by AmberGen, Inc., photocleavable mass-tag (PCMT) conjugated affinity probes are available for antibodies, oligos, and lectins.

Key Learning Objectives:

Learn the spatial biology utility of MALDI Imaging
Understand multiomics workflows and the applications to disease-based research

Who Should Attend:

Researchers interested in multiomics brain analysis
Investigators researching Alzheimer’s disease
