Her group used intestinal organoid cultures to understand what drives their ability to regenerate and self-organize.

That means if you expect tiny structural changes on the cellular level one may ask for a confocal microscope with a classic spinning disc unit as equipment. For instance, you could use the confocal scanning units (CSU) from Yokogawa.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, the following question will need to address the<strong> imaging speed and screen size<\/strong>. Both questions need to be answered together as they need to be balanced. In other words, a smaller sample number allows for a system that may image with one camera.\u00a0 I would recommend a system like Yokogawa&#8217;s CQ1 Confocal Imaging Cytometer.<\/p>\n<p>The Yokogawa<a href=\"https:\/\/www.yokogawa.com\/eu\/solutions\/products-platforms\/life-science\/high-content-analysis\/cq1\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> CQ1<\/a> Confocal Imaging Cytometer was developed with a view to Yokogawa&#8217;s extensive experience with high content systems. Such as the CellVoyager 7000 or 8000 and the numerous CSU optical units, which have also been used in competitor systems for many years.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Prisca&#8217;s team however went for a huge sample number. They established an image-based phenotypic screening platform, profiling over 450,000 organoids treated with a library of compounds.<\/strong> That means the speed of a suitable confocal microscope mattered a lot. The CellVoyager from Yokogawa can deliver the needed imaging speed and image quality, because it may image with multiple cameras in parallel. The new Yokogawa <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yokogawa.com\/eu\/solutions\/products-platforms\/life-science\/high-content-analysis\/cv8000\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CV8000<\/a> system enables simultaneous 4-color imaging of live and fixed cells.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>A phenotypic organoid fingerprint<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>In their study, authors created unique \u201cphenotypic fingerprints\u201d to describe every compound screened at the single organoid level.<\/p>\n<p><strong>With this approach, Prisca&#8217;s team identified and described the role of 230 genes that are involved in organoid development.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>To cut a long story short, <strong>the researchers identified a compound that improves the regeneration of the intestine in vivo thereby paving the way for novel therapies.<\/strong> Furthermore: the screening approach can be employed for different scientific questions and new projects.<\/p>\n<p>The article <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nature.com\/nature\/volumes\/586\/issues\/7828\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u201ePhenotypic landscape of intestinal organoid Regeneration\u201c<\/a> was recently published in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fmi.ch\/news-events\/articles\/news.html?news=474\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Nature<\/a> (Lukonin et al, Nature 2020) and gained a lot of attention in the <a href=\"https:\/\/bioengineeringcommunity.nature.com\/posts\/intestinal-regeneration-lessons-from-organoids\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">community<\/a>.

My strong curiosity and enthusiasm for biology, as well as my willingness to closely look at things (also by means of confocal microscopy), have been critical points when I chose to study biology and to obtain a Ph.D. in genetics before working with Yokogawa and Cenibra. Today, I believe that these skills guarantee successful working in this highly innovative environment of research and industry, where many new developments are happening right now and new trends like Deep-Learning and AI-driven confocal microscopy or single-cell manipulation getting more and more important. With this blog, we would like to emphasize topics of high relevance for our customers and for society.","url":"https:\/\/www.yokogawa.com\/eu\/blog\/life-innovation\/author\/michael-schnell\/"}]}},"uagb_featured_image_src":{"full":["https:\/\/www.yokogawa.com\/eu\/blog\/app\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2022\/06\/organoids.jpg",2100,1100,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/www.yokogawa.com\/eu\/blog\/app\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2022\/06\/organoids-150x150.jpg",150,150,true],"medium":["https:\/\/www.yokogawa.com\/eu\/blog\/app\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2022\/06\/organoids-300x157.jpg",300,157,true],"medium_large":["https:\/\/www.yokogawa.com\/eu\/blog\/app\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2022\/06\/organoids-768x402.jpg",768,402,true],"large":["https:\/\/www.yokogawa.com\/eu\/blog\/app\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2022\/06\/organoids-1024x536.jpg",1024,536,true],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/www.yokogawa.com\/eu\/blog\/app\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2022\/06\/organoids-1536x805.jpg",1536,805,true],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/www.yokogawa.com\/eu\/blog\/app\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2022\/06\/organoids-2048x1073.jpg",2048,1073,true],"post-thumbnail":["https:\/\/www.yokogawa.com\/eu\/blog\/app\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2022\/06\/organoids-356x200.jpg",356,200,true]},"uagb_author_info":{"display_name":"Dr. Michael Schell","author_link":"https:\/\/www.yokogawa.com\/eu\/blog\/life-innovation\/author\/michael-schnell\/"},"uagb_comment_info":0,"uagb_excerpt":"The research team of Prof. Prisca Liberali at the Friedrich Miescher Institute for Biomedical Research (FMI) in Basel explored the&hellip; Organoids paving the way Read More &raquo;","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.yokogawa.com\/eu\/blog\/life-innovation\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/454"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.yokogawa.com\/eu\/blog\/life-innovation\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.yokogawa.com\/eu\/blog\/life-innovation\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.yokogawa.com\/eu\/blog\/life-innovation\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/52"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.yokogawa.com\/eu\/blog\/life-innovation\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=454"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/www.yokogawa.com\/eu\/blog\/life-innovation\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/454\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1047,"href":"https:\/\/www.yokogawa.com\/eu\/blog\/life-innovation\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/454\/revisions\/1047"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.yokogawa.com\/eu\/blog\/life-innovation\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/457"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.yokogawa.com\/eu\/blog\/life-innovation\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=454"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.yokogawa.com\/eu\/blog\/life-innovation\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=454"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.yokogawa.com\/eu\/blog\/life-innovation\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=454"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.yokogawa.com\/eu\/blog\/life-innovation\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=454"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
