SUMMARY:OptiSlides Webinar: Colour\, Clarity & Confidence for Microscopy
DESCRIPTION:High-quality\, prepared microscope slides from Luxidea\, now available in six channel colours!  \nIs your microscope showing you the full picture?  \nJoin VH Bio and Professor Kamala Patel\, CEO of Luxidea\, for this exclusive webinar on OptiSlides: Prepared slides as sophisticated as the microscopes they serve.  \nCreated by scientists\, for scientists\, OptiSlides are advanced fluorescent microscopy slides for cell\, tissue\, or plant researchers. Specifically designed to test\, validate\, and showcase high-performance microscopes\, OptiSlides provide brilliant\, reliable results in every experiment.   \nMeet OptiSlides creator and CEO of Luxidea\, Professor Kamala Patel\, who will discuss the development of OptiSlides plant\, cell and thick tissue slides\, and be among the first to see the latest innovation – the new 6 Channel Near Infrared OptiSlides – a new spectrum of possibility for microscopy.  \nWednesday\, 18th March \n16:00 – 16:30 GMT including Q&A session  \nRegister\n  \n  \nRead more:  \nLuxidea’s OptiSlides: High-Performance Fluorescent Microscopy Slides for Laboratories  \n   \nAbout your host \n \nKamala D. Patel\, PhD\nCEO\, Luxidea\, Inc  \nProfessor\, University of Calgary  \nDr. Kamala Patel spent 35 years in academia\, working to understand the human immune system and how it misbehaves in chronic diseases. She established the Live Cell Imaging Lab at the University of Calgary and served as its Executive Director for over 20 years.  \nOne of her core principles is to democratise science by building research platforms that are accessible to all. This led to the founding of Luxidea.  \nLuxidea identifies simple solutions already at the prototype stage and develops them into products to serve the research community. Their lead product is OptiSlides\, prepared microscope slides that test\, showcase and troubleshoot advanced microscopes.  \nConnect with Kamala\n
