Innovations in flow and mass cytometry are driving its use for sorting, collecting and analyzing cells for multi-omics (genomic, transcriptomic, and proteomic) research. This webinar brings together senior post-doctoral fellows, from prominent labs actively involved in using flow and mass cytometry, to discuss how they are exploiting these improvements for diverse applications.

They are keen to share their expertise and best practices to help the flow and mass cytometry community in getting accurate and reproducible results. The speakers will give short talks followed by a live Q&A session to discuss issues related to sample preparation, experimental set-up, and data analysis for flow and mass cytometry. This forum offers a unique opportunity for open discussion and sharing of technical know-how.
