YouScope 1.2 Beta

YouScope 1.2 Beta automates control of motorized microscopes to execute complex microscopy protocols for live-cell imaging and microplate-based assays.


Key Features:

  • High-level control abstraction: Provides high-level commands to orchestrate microscope hardware and acquisition sequences on motorized microscopes.
  • Protocol implementation: Supports definition and execution of sophisticated measurement protocols including dynamic, multi-step experimental sequences.
  • Sample quality assessment: Performs rapid sample quality assessment to identify suitable fields or wells for imaging.
  • Microplate imaging protocols: Includes configurable imaging protocols tailored for cells in microplate formats and high-throughput screening.

Scientific Applications:

  • Live-cell imaging: Enables dynamic tracking of multiple signals in living cells under varying experimental conditions.
  • Microplate high-throughput imaging: Implements imaging workflows for microplate-based cellular assays and screening.
  • Complex experimental automation: Automates multifaceted microscopy experiments requiring timed, conditional, or multi-position acquisition.

Methodology:

Implements high-level automation to control motorized microscope hardware, execute configured measurement protocols, perform sample quality assessment, and run microplate imaging sequences.
