Finding Disease Phenotypes and Candidate Therapeutics Using Images: Cell Painting

Finding Disease Phenotypes and Candidate Therapeutics Using Images: Cell Painting

Explore large-scale imaging experiments and image-based profiling techniques in this 42-minute talk by Anne Carpenter and Shantanu Singh from the Broad Institute. Learn about Cell Painting, a method for creating visual signatures of genes, compounds, and diseases. Discover how to identify differences between diseased and healthy cells, cluster genes based on morphological similarities, and predict small molecule mechanisms of action. Delve into the potential of morphological profiling for virtual screening, predicting assay readouts, and transforming biomedical challenges into machine learning problems.
