By utilising flow cytometry, researchers can accurately identify and measure specific cell populations within complex mixtures, as well as assess cell cycle progression, proliferation status, and expression of fluorescent markers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our course aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the underlying principles of flow cytometry, while also emphasising practical considerations related to the most frequently used assays. Through a combination of theoretical instruction and hands-on training, students will gain the knowledge and skills necessary to effectively design, execute, and interpret flow cytometry experiments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Audience<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The course is designed for researchers at any step of their career and will cover the subject from basic principles to complex assays. Prior basic working knowledge of flow cytometry, data acquisition or analysis software (DIVA + FlowJo) &nbsp;is of advantage, but not strictly a must.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Modules\/resources<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>In-depth principles of Flow Cytometry<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Quality assessment and instrument validation<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Analysis of cell cycle profiles in fixed cells<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Particles counting<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Apoptosis assays<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tissue staining of cell surface and intracellular antigens<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Principles and guidelines for experimental design, especially for multi-colour Flow Cytometry<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Essential of gating and gating controls<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Detailed multi-sessions on analysing data from Flow Cytometers in cooperation with FlowJo<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Guidelines to prepare flow cytometry data for publication\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Learning outcomes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Our goal for this course is to teach the basic of this technology with a very big emphasis on practical work at the instruments. Nothing is better than learning by doing. We have a great set of experienced trainers in this technology delivering lectures and accompanying you into the lab doing flow on your own. We will have support from FlowJo delivering the basics and some advanced features in multiple sessions. This in-depth five-day course will push your knowledge and skills preparing you for any flow projects ahead on your research path.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What past participants say about the course<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;<em>My experience at EMBL was not only delightful but also intellectually invigorating. The seamless integration of theory and hands-on sessions provided a comprehensive learning experience. It proved to be an indispensable opportunity for exploring both fundamental and specialised aspects of flow cytometry techniques. Undoubtedly, this course was a unique and enriching chapter in my academic journey.<\/em>&#8221; \u2014 Shariqa Khawaja, Aga Khan University, Pakistan<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;<em>The course Hands-on Flow Cytometry was a unique experience. It gave me the possibility to meet the best specialists in the field and to ask and discuss every question I could bring up on the table. The trainers were extremely knowledgeable and kind, and it was a great pleasure to talk with each <\/em>of them. The theoretical part covered from basic principles to important practical tips and tricks for the best possible experimental design. In addition, the newest cutting-edge technologies were well explained and discussed<em>. The practical part was well suited for my needs and I could directly use the experiments and analysis we did in my everyday in the lab. I am extremely grateful that I was selected as a participant and I can only say thank you to the trainers for their patience and generosity<\/em>.&#8221; \u2014 Milena Petkova, Uppsala University,

and courses of fraudulent schemes purporting to offer sponsorship opportunities on behalf of EMBL or affiliated with EMBL officials. One current scam campaign of which we are aware is conducted using the name \u2018Judy Eastman\u2019 (judy@gopcontact.a2hosted.com) and entails approaches to sponsors offering sponsorship opportunities on EMBL\u2019s behalf. Please be kindly advised that all relevant communication regarding sponsorship of EMBL conferences, symposia and courses is handled by EMBL directly and is sent from an official EMBL account. EMBL does not work with any external providers on sponsorship acquisition.<\/p>\n<p class=\"vf-box__text\">Please also note that:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">EMBL never provides attendee lists for purchase.
