Discovery and Functional Profiling with Mass Cytometry Single-Cell Proteomics
We will describe the basic principles and workflow of the technology, including recent advancements incorporated into the newest CyTOF® system, Helios™.
Using data from published reports, we will discuss the scientific questions that are being addressed with mass cytometry, the analysis methods used to explore the high-content data that is generated, and the unique insights and discoveries gained by using this technology.
We will also discuss the suite of reagents and tools that simplify development and execution of large-panel experiments, enabling researchers to unravel the complex heterogeneity inherent to biological systems.
We will briefly introduce the groundbreaking Helios™ Imaging System which provides the unparalleled ability to generate high-resolution phenotypic and functional profiles of cells while maintaining their spatial context.
