About OPS
Optical pooled screening (OPS) is a high-content single-cell genetic screening technique that profiles cell phenotypes by optical microscopy, linking each cell's image to its genetic perturbation through in situ sequencing. By combining the scale of pooled CRISPR screens with the rich morphological detail of imaging, OPS enables simultaneous measurement of hundreds of phenotypic features across thousands of gene knockouts in a single experiment.

How the Data Comes Together
OPS data moves from lab bench to open portal through a community-driven process. Experiments, standardized processing, and open hosting work together to make data broadly useful.
