Enabling Global Image Data Sharing in the Life Sciences

December 23, 2024
Author(s)
Anne L. Plant, Peter Bajcsy
Public, reference data are one of the most important foundational resources in the modern life and biomedical sciences. Over the last 40 years, the public release and availability of genomic and macromolecule structural databases accelerated discovery

Mechanism of Action, Potency and Efficacy: Considerations for Cell and Gene Therapies

April 1, 2024
Author(s)
Carl Simon Jr., Anne L. Plant, Catherine Zander, Erich Bozenhardt, Christina Celluzzi, David Dobnik, Melanie Grant, John Hughes, Uma Lakshmipathy, Kok-Seong Lim, Laura Montgomery, Hesham Nawar, Thiana Nebel, Linda Peltier, James Sherley, Rouzbeh Taghizadeh, Eddie Tan, Sandrine Vessillier
One of the most challenging aspects of cell and gene therapy products (CGTPs) is defining mechanism of action (MOA), potency and efficacy of the product. This perspective examines these concepts and presents helpful ways to think about them through the

A Roadmap for LIMS at NIST Material Measurement Laboratory

April 11, 2022
Author(s)
Gretchen Greene, Jared Ragland, Zachary Trautt, June W. Lau, Raymond Plante, Joshua Taillon, Adam Abel Creuziger, Chandler A. Becker, Joe Bennett, Niksa Blonder, Lisa Borsuk, Carelyn E. Campbell, Adam Friss, Lucas Hale, Michael Halter, Robert Hanisch, Gary R. Hardin, Lyle E. Levine, Samantha Maragh, Sierra Miller, Chris Muzny, Marcus William Newrock, John Perkins, Anne L. Plant, Bruce D. Ravel, David J. Ross, John Henry J. Scott, Christopher Szakal, Alessandro Tona, Peter Vallone
Instrumentation generates data faster and in higher quantity than ever before, and interlaboratory research is in historic demand domestically and internationally to stimulate economic innovation. Strategic mission needs of the NIST Material Measurement

A MULTIDIMENSIONAL LANDSCAPE MODEL FOR DETERMINING CELLULAR NETWORK THERMODYNAMICS

March 11, 2020
Author(s)
Joseph B. Hubbard, Michael W. Halter, Anne L. Plant
The distribution of phenotypic responses within an isogenic population of cells reflects the thermodynamics of a stationary state that results from coordinated intracellular reactions. The distribution of phenotypes is the result of both deterministic and

Improving Reproducibility in Research: The Role of Measurement Science

September 18, 2019
Author(s)
Robert J. Hanisch, Anne L. Plant, Ian Gilmore
We present here a summary of a workshop held 1-3 May 2018 at the National Physical Laboratory, Teddington, UK in which the focus was how the national metrology institutes of the world might help to address challenges in reproducibility of research. The

Opportunities and Challenges in Implementation of Multiparameter Single Cell Analysis Platforms for Clinical Translation

May 11, 2018
Author(s)
susan M. Keating, D. Lansing Taylor, Anne L. Plant, E. David Litwack, Peter Kuhn, Emily J. Greenspan, Christopher M. Hartshorn, Caroline C. Sigman, Gary J. Kelloff, Gregory Friberg, Jerry S. Lee, Keisuke Kuida
The high-content interrogation of single cells with platforms optimized for the multiparameter characterization of cells in liquid and solid biopsy samples can enable characterization of heterogeneous populations of cells ex vivo. Doing so will advance the

How measurement science can improve confidence in research results

April 23, 2018
Author(s)
Anne L. Plant, Chandler A. Becker, Robert J. Hanisch, Ronald F. Boisvert, Antonio M. Possolo, John T. Elliott
The concepts and methods of measurement science can help provide clarity in the definition of reproducibility and its role in the scientific process. The qualities of rigorous research include reproducibility as one component, but there are other important

A novel measure and significance testing in data analysis of cell image segmentation

April 20, 2017
Author(s)
Jin Chu Wu, Michael W. Halter, Raghu N. Kacker, John T. Elliott, Anne L. Plant
Background: Cell image segmentation (CIS) is an essential part of quantitative imaging of biological cells. Designing a performance measure and conducting significance testing are critical for evaluating and comparing the CIS algorithms for image-based

Surface plasmon resonance microscopy: achieving a quantitative optical response

September 8, 2016
Author(s)
Alexander W. Peterson, Michael W. Halter, Anne L. Plant, John T. Elliott
Surface plasmon resonance imaging (SPRI) allows real-time label-free imaging based on index of refraction, and changes in index of refraction at an interface. SPRI can be carried out on a microscope by launching light into a sample, and collecting

Standards for cell line authentication and beyond

June 14, 2016
Author(s)
Jamie L. Almeida, Kenneth D. Cole, Anne L. Plant
Different genomic technologies have been applied to cell line authentication, but only one method (short tandem repeat profiling) has been the subject of a comprehensive standard (ASN-0002). Here we discuss the power of this document, and why standards

Strategies for Achieving Measurement Assurance for Cell Therapy Products

June 1, 2016
Author(s)
Carl G. Simon Jr., Anne L. Plant, Sumona Sarkar, John T. Elliott, Sheng Lin-Gibson
Cell therapy products (CTPs) need quantitative, validated, and robust assays to support informed decision making during their development, manufacturing, and regulation. These products, the materials involved in their production and the methods for

Large-scale Time-lapse Microscopy of Oct4 Expression in Human Embryonic Stem Cell Colonies
