High throughput histology of spheroids and organoids
Please note Purdue news release regarding our new platform to transfer spheroids & organoids from multi-well plates to a single histology cassette. This idea was initially developed by a contract from NCI and is recently funded by the Purdue Research Foundation for commercialization. We are developing this new collapsable basket array using 3D printing and…
