The five-day program brought together 54 professionals from industry and academia to bridge the gap between established flow cytometry infrastructure and emerging functional analysis. By running Nanovial workflows on imaging-enabled and large-particle sorters, attendees explored a method for screening live cells based on their behavioral outputs rather than static molecular indicators.

Partillion Bioscience Integrates Nanovial Tech into Standard Cytometry
During the 49th Annual Course in Cytometry in La Jolla, California, researchers moved beyond traditional markers by testing Nanovial-based assays on existing commercial cell sorting platforms. The August 16–20 workshop demonstrated how laboratories can perform secretion screening and cell-cell interaction studies without acquiring specialized, high-cost equipment.

Yoav Altman, the course organizer, noted that integrating Nanovials allows facilities to maximize their current hardware for complex tasks like TCR discovery. This compatibility serves as a key strategy for Partillion Bioscience, as the company seeks to lower capital barriers for labs looking to expand their research capabilities. Following successful training sessions at both this event and the earlier Cell-Cell Symposium at UCLA, CEO Joe de Rutte emphasized that equipping core facility experts creates a multiplier effect, enabling individual labs to adopt these protocols for routine use.
