This program offers a comprehensive introduction to flow cytometry, divided into two complementary parts: a theoretical e-learning module and a practical, intensive two-day workshop. You can enroll in either part independently or complete the entire program. The theoretical component provides the essential foundations of flow cytometry and its applications, while the practical session guides you through the entire process of a cell phenotyping experiment, from sample preparation to data interpretation.
Curriculum
The program is structured into two parts, allowing for flexible learning.
- Part 1: Theoretical Introduction (E-learning)
- Introduction to Flow Cytometry
- How a Flow Cytometer Works
- Analysis of Flow Cytometry Data
- Applications of Flow Cytometry
- Techniques Derived from Flow Cytometry
- Part 2: Practical Introduction (2-day Workshop)
- Performing Multi-color Cell Phenotyping Experiments and Data Analysis with FlowJo
