The Association of Biomolecular Resource Facilities (ABRF) and the International Microphysiological Systems Society (IMPSS) invite you to join a joint program to discuss collaboration opportunities to advance shared interests.  This first program will cover topics related to high-throughput imaging technology used in Core facilities to enable MPS. It is a valuable technique for phenotypic screening assays, evaluating the response of cells, cell-based models, or organisms to various types of perturbagens.
