Unlike most cells in the human body, stem cells have the unique ability to divide indefinitely. This unique property makes them especially appealing to scientists exploring ways to extend human lifespans or develop new methods for repairing damaged tissues.

Osaka UniversityOct 30 2024 Pluripotent stem cells have the potential to differentiate into any of the three primary tissue types — endoderm , mesoderm , and ectoderm . However, cultivating these cells in incubators and guiding their differentiation into the desired cell type remains a major challenge. Advancements in this field could unlock significant progress in bioengineering, including the potential to grow entire organs artificially.

INSPCTOR leverages lens-free imaging technology integrated with thin-film transistors . TFT image sensors absorb scattered light passing through objects and shining onto a thin film, generating electrical charges. Each TFT sensor is the same size as a standard glass slide and can capture images of up to six culture chambers on a typical 8-well cell culture plate. As a result, six cultures can be observed independently, and multiple units can be managed simultaneously within a compact incubator.
