BINA Quality Control & Data Management Events

Event Title: Garbage out: How sample preparation affects your imaging results

Event Abstract:

  • Is your sample preparation holding back your imaging results?
  • Have you ever wondered why some samples give better images than others?
  • Or been told, too late, that your images couldn’t be analyzed?

Good sample preparation is often the difference between image data you can use and data you can’t.
