WEBINAR- How FISH Slide Making Automating is Changing the Industry
Now that automated slide making has been adopted in leading institutions around the world, we can better quantify its impact on the laboratory. Beyond the obvious benefits of reproducibility and reduced hands-on time, automated platforms for slide making offer a new level of digitalization that has changed the way managers and directors understand their workflows. Systems that now monitor the 'life-cycle of the slide' make this information readily available to everyone in the lab as well as other key automated systems (automated scanners and LIS platforms).
Automation has also allowed labs to work with slide configurations that use less reagent and sample, all while delivering on the most important metrics - quality and consistency. By allowing laboratories to perform more assays per slide, we now have tools available to us that are having a profound effect on lab economics and turnaround times.
Our presentation will look closely at key metrics that are influenced by automation, the overall value of these improvements, and strategies for building a new digital infrastructure in your laboratory.
