  <body><![CDATA[<p align="center"><strong>Lunch ‘n Learn at Georgia Tech: Automating Microbial Screening: Intelligent Analysis and Management of Colonies</strong></p><p align="center">Alison Glaser, Biotherapeutic Application Scientist and Randy Milano, Bioresearch Application Scientist, Molecular Devices<br />March 9, 2016; 11:00 - 12:00PM</p><p><strong>Abstract:</strong> More than 50% of emerging infectious diseases arecaused by bacteria. Ongoing evolution of bacterial variants, increased incidence of drug-resistant microbes, as well as various socioeconomic and demographic reasons for increased contact with previously unfamiliar microbes all emphasize the need for ongoing research to control or destroy harmful pathogens.</p><p>Learn how you can enhance your work with microbial systems when detecting, screening, or picking colonies using automated platforms. In addition to colony picking systems, we provide a comprehensive range of microplate readers. Whether needing to read absorbance, measure kinetics, obtain a range of fluorescence readouts, or combine several modes of detection, an extensive panel of solutions is available.</p><p><strong>RSVP Required:</strong> <a href="https://www.eventbrite.com/e/lunch-n-learn-at-georgia-tech-automating-microbial-screening-tickets-21392847583">Register online http://md-georgiatech-lunchnlearn.eventbrite.com</a><br />Registration is complimentary &amp; lunch will be provided.</p>]]></body>
