Terrace Room
7:30am — 8:15am

Imaging infection: An impetus to technology innovation in high-content analysis
Spencer Shorte, Institut Pasteur, Paris

Come and hear Spencer Shorte from the Institut Pasteur, Paris talk about how multi-facetted visualization of the disease process, including high-resolution intravital multi-dimensional dynamic imaging, helped the scientific animation filmmaker Drew Berry complete his magnificent animated description of the malaria life cycle. The presentation will also look at how improved HCA approaches will better ensure fragile host-pathogen interactions are analyzed in situ without compromise.
