2023 UCD Conway Winter Multicolor Flow Cytometry Workshop

12-14 December 2023; 10:00 – 16:30 daily

In-Person
Places available: 40
Registration Closing: Monday, 04 December 2023
(Please note: registrations may close early if capacity is reached. Book early to avoid disappointment)
Cost: €150 (Academic, in-person rate)

Location: UCD O’Brien Centre for Science
Rooms: George Moore Auditorium (ground floor)
Practical session will take place at the E2.46 Undergrad Teaching Lab (2nd Floor)

Join the 1st UCD Conway Winter School of Multicolor Flow Cytometry!
During three consecutive days we will review the basic concepts and principles of fluorochromes and fluorescent dyes, we will provide tips and tricks to optimise instruments and samples and we will explain the different controls needed to ensure that your flow cytometry experiments will yield accurate results. Participants will learn the fundamentals of multicolor panel design, familiarise with on-line tools, with OMIP papers and learn the best practices for presenting data. The workshop will be a mix of lectures and hands-on sessions using cutting-edge instrumentation and third-party analysis software that will allow the cytometrist to simplify the analysis of complex data sets.
The workshop has been designed to satisfy participants with basic but also advanced knowledge in cytometry. This is possible based on our experience of organising and delivering very successful cytometry training events at University College Dublin.

We have an open PhD student position especially attractive to non-German students at the DRFZ in Berlin starting in summer 2023, and I would be grateful if you could forward  this announcement to potential candidates and circulate this in your networks. The project is to study imprints of mucosal immune reactions on blood leukocytes in different groups of autoimmune patients, with the aim to explore the utility of mucosal immune signatures for precision medicine, and to understand microbiota-immune system interactions implicated in chronic inflammation vs tolerance.

The position is funded for 3 years by the EU, through a Marie-Sklodowska-Curie Doctoral Network, and embedded in a range of related projects in the EU.

Further information on the network and the application process are provided in this links https://euraxess.ec.europa.eu/jobs/69084. For project-specific questions, please reach out to Henrik Mei and Hyun-Dong Chang (mei@drfz.de, chang@drfz.de).

We will repeat the success with a Nordic Flow Cytometry Meeting, this time in Oslo.

The meeting will be in Oslo, Norway, 10-11 February 2022. The program will consist of a basic course in flow cytometry for the PhD students (you can get ECTS credit for it) and continue with a list of very skilled people in flow cytometry. See the tentative program.

The Nordic Meeting 2022 will be held on Thursday to Friday, February 10th and 11th.

The basic flow cytometry course will be held on Wednesday 9th of February.

Place; Oslo, X meeting point, Kragerudveien 50, 2013 Skjetten, Norway.

Participants that have registered and paid for the Nordic meeting 2020/21, will still be registered as attendees for the Nordic meeting 2022 (the payment covers the 2022 meeting).

It is our pleasure to invite you to the 66th meeting of the Danish society for flow cytometry.

The theme for this meeting will be “Challenges in Flow Cytometry“.
