TechTalk: Automated organoid analysis with Spark® Cyto imaging plate reader

Friday, March 6 at 15:00 GMT | 16:00 CET | 10:00 EST | 07:00 PST

Organoids offer unprecedented insights, yet many laboratories are held back by the complexity and high cost of the required infrastructure. Typical workflows often demand sophisticated protocols and a high level of expertise that is simply not available in every lab.

In this 20-minute SelectScience TechTalk, we will introduce the Spark® Cyto, an imaging microplate reader designed to break down these barriers. Discover how this compact instrument, with integrated real-time environmental control, easily automates the monitoring and analysis of 3D structures such as organoids, enabling high-quality fluorescence and label-free imaging without a steep learning curve.

We will also demonstrate effortless assay multiplexing by integrating high-quality imaging data with quantitative metabolic readouts, such as ATP-based luminescence.

Key learning objectives:

  • Understand how to perform live-cell imaging of 3D cultures, including organoids, with real-time environmental control
  • Learn how to combine high-quality imaging with quantitative metabolic assays (e.g. ATP-based luminescence) for seamless multiplexed analysis
  • Discover how AI-assisted image analysis simplifies data interpretation and reduces manual workload
  • Explore strategies for automating 3D cell culture workflows to improve reproducibility, efficiency, and scalability

Who should attend?

  • Researchers working with 3D cell cultures
  • Anybody interested in automating cell-based assays
