A new genetic sequencing technology developed by BIOPIC researchers has improved ways to analyse DNA.

Researchers at BIOPIC have worked on reproductive technologies that help reduce the likelihood of passing on genetic disorders.

Developments in gene editing technologies have improved high-throughput screening for disease studies.

With an open environment for interdisciplinary growth, BIOPIC is nurturing a generation of scientists who take on world-leading biomedical research.

Using single-cell technologies, BIOPIC researchers have improved disease treatment.

The Nikon A1R HD25 confocal system with NIS-Elements AI software enables rapid, deep, quantitative imaging of living organs-on-chips.

Rapid developments in bioimaging and sequencing technologies have revolutionized biological science. Since Peking University’s (PKU) Biomedical Pioneering Innovation Centre (BIOPIC) was founded in 2010, an interdisciplinary group of researchers has been dedicated to developing these cutting-edge techniques, and harnessing them to address fundamental biological issues and compelling medical problems. Their results have improved understanding of biological systems, as well as infectious and non-communicable diseases. On the 10^th anniversary of BIOPIC, its founding director, Xiaoliang Sunney Xie, a pioneer in single molecule biology, reflects on its growth, and shares his vision for the development of single-cell technologies.
