Integrating ATCC Reference Materials into your Molecular Diagnostics Workflows: The Nexus of Bioinformatics with Authenticated Cells, Microorganisms, and Derivatives
Presenters: Victoria Knight-Connoni, PhD, Head of Content Development and BioNexus Principal Scientist, ATCC and Fang Tian, PhD, Director, Biological Content, ATCC
Venue: Salt Palace Convention Center
Room: 252
Date: November 15, 2023
Time: 3:00 – 3:50 PM
Development and validation of molecular diagnostic assays for clinical oncology and infectious disease rely on authenticated biological models and reference-quality genomic data to ensure accuracy and reliability of results. Check out our AMP Corporate Workshop to learn how ATCC supports each stage of the assay development workflow with authenticated cell models, microbial strains, and derivatives that are backed by whole-genome sequencing data and bioinformatics analyses.
Meet the presenters
Victoria Knight-Connoni, PhD
Head of Content Development and BioNexus Principal Scientist, ATCC
Dr. Knight-Connoni is a BioNexus Foundation Principal Scientist at ATCC where she is curates the catalog of products for use by the scientific community. Her team is responsible for sourcing new items to add to the collection and authenticating and characterizing the biological material. Dr. Knight-Connoni has spent her career in industrial microbiology working at several biotech companies focused on natural product discovery using microbes as the source of products. She has built and characterized microbial strain collections at multiple companies and led in vitro screening teams at Cubist and Indigo for product discovery. Dr. Knight-Connoni holds a doctorate in microbiology from the University of New Hampshire.
Fang Tian, PhD
Director, Biological Content, ATCC
Dr. Fang Tian, Director of Biological Content for ATCC, has extensive experience in cell biology and molecular biology. She oversees human, animal cell lines and hybridomas, and product development in the Cell Biology General Collection at ATCC. Dr. Tian was a research fellow in Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard Medical School. She conducted postdoctoral research at the Hillman Cancer Institute of UPMC.
