Three-Dimensional High-Throughput Image Analysis of Patient-Derived Organoids and Spheroids
Experts
Organoids and spheroids can more faithfully reproduce in vivo conditions, and imaging-based analysis can monitor cell-specific responses with high spatial resolution. Therefore, we have been developing imaging-based three-dimensional analysis and drug evaluation methods using patient-derived cancer organoids and spheroids.

Microscope Objectives—Where the Magic Happens
Experts
In this webinar, Olympus microscope experts Ganesh and Wei Juan discuss the importance of good optics in a complex microscope system and what optical features are important for high final image quality.
High-Content Screening: Customized Analysis Made Easy
Experts
In this webinar, Manoel and Shohei, our deep learning and high-content screening experts, will introduce the scanR system’s assay builder. The scanR system is Olympus’ dedicated high-content screening platform with a unique sample navigation approach and analysis inspired by flow cytometry.
Live Cell Super Resolution Imaging: The Big Picture of Small Things
Experts
In this webinar, Olympus imaging experts Stefan, Lauren, and Chunsong will discuss how to more easily create super resolution images.
Digital Image Processing: Point and Local Operation Filters
Experts
Images captured with a light microscope are never true representations of the specimen; there are always sources of error that must be controlled. In this webinar, we will discuss how these sources of error can be managed.
Think Deep, See Deeper with Near-Infrared Laser Scanning Confocal Microscope
Experts
If you’re interested in having more fluorescent markers in your sample, imaging deeper into your sample at high resolution, and conducting live cell imaging with minimal phototoxicity, check out this on-demand webinar from Olympus imaging experts.
Light Sheet Microscopy for Deeper Insight into Life
Experts
In this webinar, you’ll learn how the Alpha3 light sheet microscope combines very thin optical sectioning and high-quality Olympus optics for high-resolution 3D imaging of both live and fixed biological samples.
Imaging Multiple Subcellular Structures at the Nanometer Scale in 3D
Experts
Join Dr. Nicolas Bourg, the co-founder of Abbelight, as he discusses how fast and easy it can be to obtain high-quality, reliable, and understandable single-molecule images of your samples with 15 nm resolution in 3D.
FluidFM: A Novel Approach to CRISPR Gene Editing by Direct Intra-Nuclear Delivery
Experts
In this webinar, Paul Monnier from Cytosurge will show you how to overcome one of the biggest challenges in gene editing: delivery of the genetic material into the nucleus. Paul will discuss the FluidFM nanosyringe that can gently pierce the nuclear envelope to deliver reagents directly into the nucleus.
3D Assays: Intelligent Software, Insightful Analyses
Experts
In this webinar, we discuss how to obtain the best statistical data for spheroids and microplate-based assays. These data can help you quantify the response of a 3D model to a compound and makes it easier to compare the effect of different treatments, such as varying concentrations.
Multiplexing and Deep Tissue Imaging with Near-Infrared Confocal Laser Scanning Microscopy
Experts
In this webinar, you’ll learn about fluorescence multiplexing and deep tissue imaging using near-infrared (NIR) laser light.
Modern Slide Scanning: Single-cell Phenotyping on Fixed Samples
Experts
Learn about the latest generation of slide scanners in this on-demand webinar. Our experts will discuss how modern slide scanners can be a workhorse for your applications and how multiplexing can reveal much more information from a slide. With a guest expert from Ultivue, you’ll learn how single-cell phenotyping can dramatically improve the understanding of the dynamics in a sample, even if it is a fixed slide.
