CCMA 2021 Cytometry SRL Perspectives – Webcast

A 9-part series of informal 1-hr discussions to connect with your fellow Canadian SRL. Join us as we invite members of the cytometry/microscopy and SRL community to share their different perspectives and experiences in the following subject areas.

  • Podcast style with moderators for each session (CCMA EB) to facilitate discussion/ask questions
  • Focus on different perspectives
    • Microscopy vs. flow
    • Academia vs. industry vs. government
    • Clinical vs. research

Each session in the series will also feature a Canadian core facility in our “Meet the Cores of Canada” initiative.

Schedule

Description of Sessions

Session 1: Resolving the Small Stuff (Part 1) – Small Particle Flow Cytometry – Wed. Feb 17 @noon ET

There is increasing interest in the use of flow cytometry for phenotypic analysis of small particles such as extracellular vesicles and viruses. To detect these small particles, conventional flow cytometers are functioning at the limit of detection. There is currently no consensus on how small particles should be analysed on flow cytometers. This session brings together small particle flow cytometry gurus from around the world to share their different approaches to resolving the small stuff.

Topics of Discussion:

  • Pros and cons of SSC vs FL threshold
  • Calibration methods and and the materials to use (FL & SSC)

Guest Panelists: 

  • Edwin van der Pol (Amsterdam University Medical Centers/Exometry)
  • Desmond Pink (Nanostics)
  • Joanne Lannigan (Flow Cytometry Support Services)
  • John Nolan (Scintillon Institute/Cellarcus)

Moderators:

  • Joshua Welsh (NIH)
  • Vera Tang (University of Ottawa)
