The Advanced Flow Cytometry and Cell Sorting course provides a comprehensive understanding of modern flow cytometry principles, focusing on fluorescence detection, multicolor panel design, sample preparation, compensation, gating strategies, and high-purity cell sorting techniques. It equips learners with the skills to operate flow cytometers, analyze complex cellular populations, identify biomarkers, troubleshoot technical issues, and perform safe and efficient fluorescence-activated cell sorting for applications in immunology, oncology, hematology, infectious diseases, and translational research. Learners gain practical competence in data interpretation, instrument quality control, and the use of analysis software such as FlowJo or Cytobank, enabling them to produce high-quality, reproducible experimental results for both research and clinical environments.
Objectives
- To deepen understanding of advanced principles and applications of flow cytometry.
