This educational program builds on core cytometry principles to demonstrate how strategic fluorochrome selection, structured panel design, advanced data analysis, and real-time imaging can work together to unlock deeper biological insights.
Participants will explore practical approaches to designing high-performance spectral panels, generating reproducible results, and maximizing the value of complex biological datasets. In addition, the program will showcase how imaging-derived parameters can reveal new dimensions of cellular information and enhance scientific discovery.
The final session will focus on single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq), providing a practical overview of the complete workflow, from experimental design and sample preparation through to key considerations for successful sequencing and data generation.
Topics Include
- Foundations of high-performance spectral panel design: optimizing fluorochrome pairings
- Achieving consistency in panel design through a structured, reproducible approach
- Enhancing data quality and biological insight: a real-world case study
- Visualizing imaging-derived parameters: the next frontier in cytometry
- Practical tips for successful single-cell and single-nucleus genomics experiments
We look forward to seeing you there!
