Powering deepest functional insights from live single cells with Beacon Discovery

May 20, 2025 17:00 BST / 18:00 CEST / 12:00 EDT / 09:00 PDT

Single-cell functional analysis is essential for uncovering the behavior of individual cells. It complements cellular transcriptomics analysis by providing critical insights that empowers researchers to discover complex biological processes and diseases.

Join our live webinar with two experts, Dr. Joseph Zenga, MD, and Dr. Alireza Salmanzadeh, MBA, PhD, as they introduce Beacon Discovery™, a flexible and accessible solution for temporal functional cellular analysis powered by proven Opto-Electro Positioning (OEP®) technology. Learn how Beacon Discovery facilitates advanced single-cell analysis with multi-dimensional data and sequential assays, and supports scalable and efficient workflows to drive breakthroughs in cell therapy, antibody discovery, vaccines, and beyond.

Plus, Dr. Zenga will share how he has used this platform to push the boundaries of T-cell profiling and CAR/TCR discovery, opening new possibilities for cancer immunotherapy.

Key learning objectives

  • Learn how to rapidly identify functional CARs and TCRs to use as cell therapy candidates, and how to simultaneously collect cytokine, surface phenotype, and cytotoxicity data for individual cells for T-cell profiling
  • Learn how to find rare targets faster, and discover many more functional hits than hybridoma, and profile antibody repertoire to characterize vaccine performance
  • Learn how to perform real-time sequential multiplexed assays to capture dynamic cellular behaviors, and how to link live-cell functional analysis with genomic and transcriptomic data from the same single cell for deeper insights
  • Gain expertise in immune profiling, long-term cell culturing, cell-cell interaction, and high-throughput screening to accelerate translational research

Who should attend?

  • Researchers interested in assessing the function of single cells
  • Researchers working on T cells, cell therapy, and CAR/TCR discovery and antibody discovery
  • Academic, biotech, and pharmaceutical professionals
