Ageing/geroscience: multimodal, multispectral, multiparametric, multiscale, multispecies analysis
To tackle complex biological questions in aging and geroscience, we design and implement advanced multimodal, multiparametric, and multiscale pipelines in imaging, flow cytometry, and image flow cytometry. Our workflows span the entire process—from sample preparation to data acquisition and multidimensional analysis. We investigate biological systems across multiple scales, from subcellular structures such as mitochondria to organoids, whole organs, and even entire organisms. Our pipelines are tailored to a wide range of tissues, including adipose tissue, muscle, bone marrow, skin, blood, and periodontal tissue. In addition, our platforms provide access to complementary techniques such as second- and third-harmonic generation (SHG, THG), spectral confocal imaging, high-content imaging, image-based cytometry, conventional and spectral flow cytometry, and mechanobiological analysis. These integrative approaches are designed to support comparative and translational research across multiple species, including fish (with an emphasis on the African turquoise killifish as a model of aging), drosophila, mice, and humans.
