In Issue 5 of Laboratory News, we explore how laboratories are challenging conventional thinking, from rethinking established imaging techniques to revisiting analytical methods and building the ecosystems needed to scale up life sciences. Our coverage examines the technologies, infrastructure and ideas shaping modern laboratory practice, while The Knowledge explores instrument performance and reliability, looking at how instrumentation and its relationship with the laboratory environment influence scientific outcomes.
In this issue:
- Rethinking blur microscopy: How working with blurred images could open up new possibilities for scanning microscopy.
- NGS vs CE: Revisiting the respective roles of next-generation sequencing and capillary electrophoresis.
- Building the life sciences ecosystem: The partnerships, capabilities and infrastructure needed to support life sciences scale-up.
The Knowledge: Instrument performance and reliability
- Core Lab: Instrument connectivity is becoming an influence on laboratory design, shaping how equipment, data and workflows fit together.
- Fit-out: How laboratory design can help determine scientific success, from the working environment to the conditions needed for reliable research.
Plus our usual columns, news roundup and features, covering the people, research and developments moving laboratory science forward.
