Advanced Multiplexing in Optical Imaging:
Unveiling the Cellular Landscape in Health and Disease

Join us for a day of microscopy showcases, scientific talks and networking at Imperial College London. Explore how the latest multiplex imaging technologies can provide new insights into biomedical research, with proven applications showcased by leading experts from Imperial and across the UK.

You will discover:

  • Insights into healthy and malignant haematopoiesis with multiplex imaging in murine and human bone marrow
  • How 25-colour multiplex immunofluorescence sheds light on immune surveillance in skin cancer
  • How multiplexed super-resolution single-molecule FISH is unveiling synaptic plasticity at the molecular level
  • Methods to achieve 3D spatial imaging with at least 15 markers in a single pass, overcoming the high multiplexing barrier

Multiplex imaging offers unparalleled insights into complex cellular environments by enabling researchers to explore tissue architecture, cellular interactions, and molecular dynamics with unprecedented precision. 

In this collaborative event, renowned speakers will showcase their research using cutting-edge multiplex imaging techniques across diverse applications. These include haematopoiesis, cancer research and neurodevelopment, offering fresh insights into synaptic plasticity, stem cell dynamics, tumour microenvironments, and the role of the immune system in tissue homeostasis.

You will learn how to take advantage of advanced multiplexing to get fresh insights into cellular heterogeneity and disease mechanisms at a spatial and molecular level.

Technologies that will be discussed include:

  • Multiplex immunofluorescence imaging 
  • High-parameter fluorescence microscopy  
  • Multiplexing in confocal microscopy  

Leica Microsystems is pleased to partner with the Royal Microscopical Society (RMS) and abcam for this event.
