This image shows a digital podcast player interface. The central "now playing" card features the title "3D cell culture at Greiner Bio-One: new technologies for personalised medicine" with Dr. Glauco R. Souza. The artwork depicts the same Petri dish illustration from the first image. Below the art, a playback bar shows the episode is at the 2-second mark with a total length of 28:42. Play, pause, and skip buttons are visible. The entire player is framed by an orange-to-dark-brown gradient background with the text "...new episode?" written in white at the bottom right.
This promotional graphic for "Not Another Science Podcast" features a vibrant orange background with white star accents. The text introduces hosts Amelie and Tori and their guest, Dr. Glauco Souza, a leader in 3D cell culture and Director at Greiner Bio-One. It describes the episode's focus on 3D cell culture techniques, from patents to scaling a $100 million business. A large circular inset shows an illustration of multiple blue Petri dishes filled with cells, with one prominent yellow dish in the center. A bold quote at the bottom reads, "3D cell culture is the new paradigm, and that is where we have the new methodologies applications.”
This slide, on an orange background, features two main Q&A sections. The first explains that a nanoshell is a nanoparticle assembly of iron oxide, gold, and polylysine that allows cells to levitate and interact in a magnetic field to form 3D structures. The second section defines 3D cell culture as a new paradigm because it creates an in vivo-like structure using human cells, reducing the need for animal testing. A photo in the bottom right corner shows a gloved hand using a multichannel pipette to add pink media to a laboratory well plate, illustrating the process of feeding the starving cells.
Set against the same orange theme, this image discusses the clinical advantages of 3D magnetic cell cultures, specifically in oncology. It explains how breaking apart and reassembling a tumor in a lab can help determine which drugs or combinations will effectively kill it through phenomics. The bottom half of the page offers career advice for students, emphasizing the importance of not burning bridges and finding a niche. It concludes with the bold quote: "So you have to get some of that failure behind you to grow and be prepared to be opportunistic." The visual includes a 3D rendering of a magnetic drive used to manipulate cell cultures in plates.
A new episode of Not Another Science Podcast has just been launched! 🧬 Our podcast hosts Amelie and Tori sat down with Dr. Glauco Souza, now currently director of Global Business, Development, and Innovation at Greiner Bio-One. Listen on Spotify or Apple Podcast! 🎧
