NGS Core Facility invites: Accelerate Discovery Tour
Cell-Based Assays & Lab Automation | 14 October 2026 | Mannheim
Laboratories are under increasing pressure to do more with less while maintaining quality and reproducibility. As workloads grow and resources remain stretched, many teams are looking for ways to increase throughput, reduce manual effort, and improve workflow consistency.
That's why we're bringing the Accelerate Discovery Tour to Mannheim on 14th October for a day of practical insights, live demonstrations, and expert discussions.
Whether you're looking to scale NGS workflows, improve reproducibility in cell-based assays, or take the first step into laboratory automation, you'll leave with practical ideas you can apply in your lab.

New Technology Platform operational at the Proteomics Core Facility (PCF)
With the TripleTOF 6600+ mass spectrometer, the Proteomics Core Facility received a new technology platform from AB Sciex as new equipment. The PCF started the development of new workflows with the AB TripleTOF 6600+ mass spectrometer to expand services. The TripleTOF 6600+ combines fast and high sensitive scanning with the Data Independent Acquisition (DIA) approach (SWATH®) for quantitation of (almost) every detectable compound in a sample. We are interested in establishing quantitative workflows in order to enlarge the field of clinical proteomics studies. The combination of split free micro flow HPLC with SWATH® acquisition for accelerating quantitative proteomics studies is becoming more widespread, due to the improved robustness and throughput. With the µl-pick-up principle of the new HPLC system, technical replicas from smallest sample volumes are made possible.
