IN Cell Image Competition—the winners are announced!

The IN Cell Analyzer is a high-content analysis system that employs image based cellular assays in a high-throughput and analysis format. This allows researchers to increase the number of questions they can ask while simultaneously decreasing the time taken to achieve their results.

To celebrate this we invited IN Cell Analyzer users to submit their images to the IN Cell Image Competition, supported by BioTechniques. This year we have received over 80 fabulous images from researchers’ worldwide, working in areas such as toxicology, cancer and neurology.

Three winners; one from Europe, one from Asia region and one from North America to be taken to New York to see their image displayed on the first high-definition screen in Times Square.


2,000 scientists voted for their favorite image, as a result the winners are:

Carmen Laethem, Aerie Pharmaceuticals, Inc., USA	Asae Igarashi from Kyowa Hakko Kirin Co., Ltd., Japan	Dr. Miriam Ascagni from DIBIT-San Raffaele Scientific Institute, Italy

Ocular Diseases Primary Porcine Trabecular Meshwork Cells stained for DNA (blue) actin (red) and focal adhesions (green).	Cancer HeLa cells stained for DNA (blue), tubulin (red) and nuclear mitotic apparatus protein (green).	Neurobiology Rat hippocampal neurons and astrocytes stained for neuronal βIII-tubulin (green), astrocyte GFAP (red) and DNA (blue).
