Use of xMAP® Technology to Measure Complex Immune Response to Infection in Mice
For our fifth Webinar Wednesday blog, we’re featuring a talk from James Lederer, PhD, Associate Professor of Surgery at Harvard Medical School. Lederer is an xMAP® expert, having developed approximately 200 multiplex immunoassays to study the effects of trauma on the immune system and to support the discovery of immuno-therapy treatments.
In this 30-minute webinar, you’ll learn about:
- Why single-mediator assays are obsolete and how multiplexing is aligned with current scientific climate for systems immunology research, such as inflammatory responses and T-cell mediated immune regulation
- xMAP cytokine assay development tips
- Examples of multi-dimensional approaches (flow cytometry + CyTOF mass cytometry + xMAP cytokine profiling) for immuno-phenotyping studies in mouse models and humans
About Webinar Wednesday
In 2018, we are presenting a new blog series called Webinar Wednesday. Throughout this series, we will share the diverse work of the xMAP multiplexing community by highlighting webinars from the xMAP Connect users group meetings, live webinars, Luminex field application scientists, and Luminex partners. We hope you enjoy the new series!
