How much can you learn from the shape of a red blood cell?
In our latest publication, we augment the decades-old sickling test with Octopi, a low-cost automated microscope, and classify disease state based on cell morphology.

Thanks to all the participants in Nepal and Canada, and to the incredible team in Canada, Nepal and the US.

Low-cost screening tools to detect sickle cell disease are needed to close the diagnostic gap, especially in remote and rural regions. Check out our latest publication in @LancetRH_SEAsia evaluating 6 different low-cost tools in #Nepal and #Canada.

If you are at #sfn2024 this week - don’t miss the new “open hardware/software” confocal integration with the latest SQUID from @cephlainc bringing #openscience nextgen data pipelines built on open automated platforms. This machine was at high sea 🌊 a few months ago. @hongquan_li

(1/n) As Sickle cell awareness month is coming to an end, I'm excited to share our latest pre-print https://t.co/slEKbvnFMR
Here, we explore how the shape of red blood cells can be used to identify sickle cell disease.

[Pranav @pranavshr]

(4/n) Importantly, we were able to show that shape based classification can help identify individuals with sickle cell disease and trait conditions (including sickle cell trait and beta-thalassemia trait) with sensitivity | specificity of 85% | 92%.

Squid&Octopi in latest @naturemethods piece “Bioimaging for all”. Without getting 🔬in hands of brilliant people in the world - we can’t democratize science. Excited to join this mission, reach out to us at @cephlainc where we are building a new vision for robotic microscopy.

Our #waterplanet” needs tools that operate at sea. We are here for a month to test new tools to directly measure carbon sequestration in ocean. mCDR requires fundamental understanding of how this incredible ecosystem works. Perks include amazing sunsets. SOUND ON!! @cephlainc

Thank you @ubcengineering and @ubcappscience for letting me share part of my story

[UBC Engineering @ubcengineering]

Celebrating our #UBCAPSCStars 💫

For @Pranavshr's PhD with @UBCMech, he researched sickle cell disease detection methods using microneedles and implemented his findings at the Bheri Hospital in Nepal.

Incredibly honored to be part of this inspiring bunch! Thank you @UBC for providing a wonderful platform for growth and collaboration. Thank you to my mentors @Mutant_Boris @ManuPra18599785 @HMerkeley and my family/friends for the constant motivation and support.

[UBC Applied Science @ubcappscience]

This week, 1800+ Applied Science students collect their degrees! 🎓

Of this exceptional #ClassOf2024, we are honoured to recognize five students, who are championing EDI.I initiatives at #UBC and beyond.

(1/n) Wonderful time to announce launch @cephlainc #cellbio2023 Booth 420 with @hongquan_li and Yining. Seeing speed & acceleration in AI - 7 years ago we embarked on journey of making versatile opensource automated flexible platform for bespoke microscope https://t.co/q8h0106u06

@PrakashLab @hongquan_li Congratulations Dr. @hongquan_li !! It has been such a pleasure and a gift to implement Octopi in Nepal and Canada for our work. Great job with building such useful tools and hope to see them being implemented in many more places/settings. Good luck for future endeavors!!
