Lectures from our vendor partners will provide brief “bite-sized” discussions of topics curated by your instructors to familiarize you with the latest flow cytometry technologies.

The course includes daily interactive sessions, such as live data analysis, a live panel design workshop, interactive trivia and question/answer sessions to give students the best online experience and instructive time at the cytometers using live streaming videos. Your instructors are Bridget (director) and Jonathan (manager) of the UC Davis Flow Cytometry Shared Resource Laboratories who have over 35 years of combined experience in flow cytometry that provides the foundation of this excellent learning experience! The lecture and laboratory modules will be conducted through teleconferencing software to bring you our time-tested training course to you safely and conveniently.

The concepts introduced in these lectures will be complemented by virtual laboratory sessions that will expand your knowledge of key concepts and best practices in analytic cytometry, cell sorting, experiment design and analysis. After covering the basics, we’ll discuss advanced topics including multicolor panel design, troubleshooting, data analysis and artifact reduction. FlowJo is currently developed by the Ashland, Oregon-based FlowJo LLC, a subsidiary of Becton Dickinson.This comprehensive online flow cytometry course will teach you how flow cytometers work and how to design your assays to achieve reliable, reproducible results. In 2002, Tree Star released a Windows version. calcium flux analysis, proliferation analysis, quantification, cluster identification and backgating displayįlowJo became a commercial product in 1996. Thus, you can apply a gate to a sample, copy it to the group, and that gate will be automatically placed on all samples in the group.įlowJo provides tools for the creation of histogram and other plot overlays, cell cycle analysis. When an operation on a group is initiated, FlowJo can perform the same operation on every sample belonging to that group. Within a workspace, samples can be grouped or sorted by various attributes such as the panel of antibodies with which they are stained, tissue type, or patient from whom they came. FlowJo's ability to automate repetitive operations facilitates the production of statistics tables and graphical reports when the experiment involves many samples, parameters and/or operations. Viewing an entire experiment in a Workspace permits organizing and managing complex cytometry experiments and produces detailed graphical reports. In FlowJo, samples are organized in a 'Workspace' window, which presents a hierarchical view of all the samples and their analyses (gates and statistics).
