🔬 HTai Imaging

Imaging arm of the FIVE product, owned by Lillian Gaddy. Plates flow into Lillian's HTai confocal queue from one of two intake paths during the transition:

Current intake (Lillian's Google Form)
Existing flow

Lillian's Google Form accepts plate-layout Excel uploads using her standardized 12-column template (Plate ID · Well Label · Row · Col · Cell Type · Genotype · Density · Plate Coating · Drug Name · Dose · Stage · Stain Suite).

Target intake (this system)
Unified request

Submit through the FIVE request form with imaging as a deliverable. The plate-layout uploader accepts the same Lillian template (12-column long format) — and the imaging request shows up here automatically.

During transition we accept both. The new system reads the same template — no re-typing.

Pulled live from in-flight requests where the deliverable mentions imaging / HTai / staining. Click any card to manage on the dashboard.

Bigger questions to resolve with Lillian: where do generated images land (OMERO / file share / etc.)? Should the queue include staining-only requests, or imaging-only? See reference_imaging.md in memory for status.
