For 10 years, the Allen Institute for Cell Science has been a leader in accelerating advancements in cell biology. By creating groundbreaking tools, resources, and open-access datasets and models, the Institute has empowered researchers and educators to explore and understand cells in new ways. Through its large-scale, interdisciplinary efforts, it has enabled the scientific community to tackle complex biological questions and make discoveries that wouldn’t be possible otherwise.
When: Dec 14 - 18, 2024
Where: San Diego, California Visit exhibit hall booth #313 to meet researchers, educators, and recruiting staff from the Allen Institute for Cell Science and learn about our open science resources & career opportunities. Explore our datasets, visualization tools, software, and human iPS cell lines available on the Allen Cell Explorer. We just released 8 disease cell line collections, each containing multiple isogenic control and mutation-carrying clones:
![]() "Cell states were traditionally defined by how they looked, where they were located, and what functions they performed. In this post-genomic era, the field is largely focused on a molecular view of cell state. Moving forward, we anticipate that the observables used to define cell states will evolve again as single-cell imaging and analytics are advancing at a breakneck pace via the collection of large-scale, systematic cell image datasets and the application of quantitative image-based data science methods. This is, therefore, a key moment in the arc of cell biological research to develop approaches that integrate the spatiotemporal observables of the physical structure and organization of the cell with molecular observables toward the concept of a holistic cell state. In this perspective, we propose a conceptual framework for holistic cell states and state transitions that is data-driven, practical, and useful to enable integrative analyses and modeling across many data types." We are excited to host the 11th EMT International Association (TEMTIA 11) meeting at the Allen Institute in Seattle, Washington, USA, on November 12-15, 2024. The epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a cell state change during which cells transition from stationary to migratory behavior. Associated with normal development but also a characteristic of many cancers, EMT includes complex changes across multiple cell characteristics and is consistently and universally difficult to define. At this year’s TEMTIA, we will leverage the diversity of the field, convening experts across contexts, perspectives, and scales of study to address this challenge. Scientific sessions will be organized with common themes such as: data integration, microscopy in EMT, modeling of state changes, and more.
To recognize the seminal contributions of Dr. Elizabeth Hay to the EMT field, TEMTIA will present the Betty Hay award of AU$1000.00 to a young female scientist.

Meet scientists from the Allen Institute for Cell Science, learn about our open resources and updates on our scientific researches, talk to our recruiting team about career opportunities, and more at the 2023 Annual Meeting of the Biophysical Society (BPS).
Date: February 10-14, 2024 Location: Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Booth #301 Meet scientists from the Allen Institute for Cell Science, learn about our open resources and updates on our scientific researches, talk to our recruiting team about career opportunities, and more at the Cell Bio 2023 - the annual meeting of the American Society for Cell Biology.
Date: Jun 14 - 17, 2023 Location: Boston, Massachusetts Explore our collection of fluorescently tagged human induced pluripotent stem cell lines as part of the Allen Cell Collection. These cell lines target key cellular structures and they are openly available to support your research. In this video tutorial, Allen Institute for Cell Science intern Rennie Dupar walks you through the cell lines, supporting data and images, and important resources.
