This episode dives into how scientific understanding evolves over time, using immunology as a case study to highlight how often researchers underestimate what they don’t yet know. Adam and Brian reflect on historical quotes from medicine and science that confidently declared fields “complete,” only to be proven wrong by later discoveries. From there, they discuss how the way scientists name and categorize cells shapes how experiments are designed, interpreted, and compared across labs. Incons...

Considerations for Flow Cytometry-based Cell Sorting
In this episode, Adam and Brian explored recent advances in cell sorting technology, focusing on image-activated approaches. Unlike traditional flow cytometry, which relies on voltage signals, these systems capture and analyze cell images in real time to guide sorting decisions, enabling new insights such as subcellular localization and cell-to-cell signaling. The hosts emphasized trade-offs between purity, yield, and speed, as well as technical considerations like nozzle size, sample stabili...
