Session: Sustainably Automate the Manual Cell-Staining process using revolutionary AI-based Solution
Artificial Intelligence (AI) models provide insights into scientific data that otherwise require complex processes to obtain. In culturing biological cells, the process for staining cells require toxic reagents which kill the cells in this process. With advances in AI, data scientists have created a virtual staining model. Open Source software - AI Connect for Scientific Data (AiCSD) leverages this AI model and streamlines complex manual work by securely connecting scientific devices like an imaging microscope to on-premise AI pipelines for image analysis and virtual staining. Not only is this new process for staining cells more efficient, but it is also sustainable because the bench scientist only needs to image the cells on the microscope. This presentation illustrates how this revolutionary open source solution-AiCSD was architected to build a sustainable cell-staining solution for the biopharma industry. We will also cover how this flexible solution can be extended to other use cases including retail, industrial and agriculture.Key Takeaways
- Describe the manual cell staining process and disadvantages of using toxins during culturing of biological cells.
- Explain the innovative AI-based solution to automate the cell staining process, using image processing with images captured via microscope using the open-source microservice-based containerized solution- AI Connect for Scientific Data(AiCSD).
- Illustrate how AiCSD can automatically transfer, process, and compare scientific data (like images) using AI-assisted pipelines for other custom use cases.
- Share the learnings and challenges involved in developing this distributed container based microservice solution.
