Breakfast Briefing: Tissue Print Technologies for the Preparation of High Quality Human Biospecimens: A Practical and Cost Effective Approach to Obtaining Snap-Frozen Tissue for Molecular Biomarker AnalysisTuesday, 24 March 2015 at 08:00  Add to Calendar ▼2015-03-24 08:00:002015-03-24 09:00:00Europe/LondonBreakfast Briefing: Tissue Print Technologies for the Preparation of High Quality Human Biospecimens: A Practical and Cost Effective Approach to Obtaining Snap-Frozen Tissue for Molecular Biomarker AnalysisSELECTBIOenquiries@selectbiosciences.comAlthough technologies that support the use of FFPE specimens for molecular studies have advanced rapidly in recent years, high quality snap-frozen tissue is still required for many research applications. We have developed a set of innovative tissue-print technologies that support the analysis of RNA, DNA and protein biomarkers in human biopsies and surgical specimens without compromising the tissue for pathology diagnosis. My presentation will highlight the results of the adoption of tissue print technologies by our multi-center prostate cancer collaborative research group. This practical and cost-effective approach has allowed us to obtain snap frozen “touch prep” samples from prostate needle biopsies, dramatically expanding the range of patients and samples available for molecular genetic analysis. |
