The Cell Biology at Scale (CB@S) meeting is co-hosted by SciLifeLab, the national research infrastructure for life science in Sweden, and Biohub.

Recent advances in multiplexed molecular profiling, high-resolution imaging, perturbation technologies, and AI-driven modeling are changing how we study cells. Conducting cell biology at scale is not simply about increasing throughput. It represents a shift in how experiments are designed, how data are integrated, and how biological questions are formulated across molecular, cellular, and organismal levels.

CB@S 2026, a one-day symposium, will focus on forward-looking perspectives:

  • How do we integrate multimodal cellular data?
  • How can modeling and AI help build predictive, cell-scale theoretical frameworks?
  • What experimental and computational strategies are still missing?

The symposium will be accessible both on site and via live stream.

The annual CB@S meetings started four years ago, and so far, all have taken place in the United States. Now for the first time, the meeting will be hosted in Europe. Stockholm is an established international center for interdisciplinary life science research, with strong environments in cell biology, data-driven biology, and technology development.

This event is kindly supported by Chan Zuckerberg Initiative and Knut and Alice Wallenberg Foundation.
