The VisionSlice platform
Five connected workspaces for images, experimental data, molecular constructs, and evidence review. The capabilities below describe the current development build.
Imaging
Open images, review tissue masks, define regions, and save measurements from source pixels. Workflows cover cells and histology alongside blots and gels, with batch image upload and a project image library.
From image to figure
Work with TIFF, OME-TIFF, PNG, JPEG, and supported CZI layouts. Add selected scenes and crops to figure layouts, then export PNG or TIFF at a chosen size and resolution while retaining the original image.
Processing & Bench Assays
Bring spreadsheets, image measurements, and supported instrument exports into analysis tables. Review experimental units and analysis choices for qPCR, ELISA, plate-reader, and blot workflows, then prepare graphs and figures.
Results and curves
Prepare kinetic summaries, fit supported curve models, and explore amplification and melt traces. Statistical tools include group comparisons, repeated-measures analyses, and mixed models for supported experimental designs. Save results with links to their source tables and export figures as SVG, PDF, PNG, or TIFF.
Construct Builder
Import and edit sequence records, inspect annotations, organize construct families and variants, and compare sequences. Search saved constructs and keep revisions, source references, and assay links together.
Keep the design in context
Move between construct views while retaining the selected record and draft work. Sequence exports and saved comparisons support review as a design develops.
Instrument Data
Choose a source and export type, preview the contents, review flags and missing values, and save the original file alongside its imported records. Supported workflows include plate-reader results and kinetics, qPCR results and curves, and blot analysis tables.
Support for selected export layouts
Selected Gen5, QuantStudio Design & Analysis, CFX Maestro, and SoftMax Pro exports can become source-linked Processing tables. Compatibility depends on the software version and export layout. Newer formats remain under evaluation; importing a file preserves its exported values and does not automatically run an analysis.
Validation
Link a finding to its source evidence, prepare a sensitivity plan, and review saved scenarios before choosing to run them. Search saved evidence and inspect the analysis choices and uncertainty settings recorded with each plan.
Review how choices affect a result
Keep sensitivity and robustness checks within the project, with saved plans and exports available for inspection. These workflows examine analysis choices; they do not establish clinical or biological validity.
A project connects the work
- Bring in your sources
- Upload images and tables in batches, preview supported instrument exports, and organize sequence records. Review each input before choosing an analysis.
- Follow the evidence
- Keep original files, source links, revisions, and saved results together. Reopen evidence and assemble reports as the project develops.
- Find the next tool
- Find action searches tools using related terms and common task descriptions, then gives directions to the relevant workspace.
In development
VisionSlice is not yet publicly available. Features and supported formats continue to evolve, and availability differs between development builds. We welcome questions from researchers interested in these workflows.
