2015 Pathology 2.0 group of ESTP Webinars
Tissue section-based investigative technologies

With the objective of continuous pathology education, ESTP Pathology 2.0 group invites you to a series of 4 webinars on Advanced Pathology Technologies during this year. The second and third webinars will focus on digital image analysis of immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization and it's uses to quantify biomarker expression and utilization as a multiplexing tool.

Webinar 3. Digital Image Analysis and Multiplexing of Biomarkers – Part 2

Speaker: Helen Angell, BSc, PhD
Senior Scientist, Molecular Pathology, Translational Science, Oncology iMed, AstraZeneca.
Moderator: Famke Aeffner, DVM, PhD, DACVP
Associate Director of Pathology; Flagship Biosciences Inc.
Date: Wednesday, 5th August 2015 at 2 p.m. CET

Objectives:

  • This is the second of a two-part series of webinars addressing image analysis and multiplexing of IHC and/or ISH labelling in tissue sections.
  • The 45 minute webinar will cover examples of working with different digital image analysis platforms and their utility to quantify biomarker expression in IHC and IF stained sections. Specific aspects that will be covered include:
    • Platform comparison and examples (Aperio, HALO, Definiens, Perkin Elmer)
    • IHC and IF multiplexing
    • Future perspectives: getting the most from your tissue (Nanostring, CyTOF)
  • The 15 minute Q&A session will allow the participants to ask questions directly to the speaker and the moderator.
Who should attend?
  • Pathologists, residents and scientists working with FFPE.
  • Little prior knowledge of digital image analysis is required.
