Workshop on Flow Cytometry
Experimental Designing and Data Analysis
11-12 March, 2015
Jawaharlal Nehru Centre for Advanced Scientific Research (JNCASR), Bangalore
- Fluorescent Activated Cell Sorting (FACS) or Flow Cytometry is widely used in basic and clinical research. To harness the real power of this state of art technique, appropriate experimental designing and accurate analysis of FACS data are crucial. Correct data analysis is not only important but also critical to adequately identify or functionally characterize the multiple populations of interest within the system. In the last few years, the number of parameters (colors) simultaneously used in flow Cytometry experiments has increased. This is enabled by the availability of high-end Instruments and powerful data analysis tools.
- In this workshop, we will cover analysis of single & multicolor flow Cytometry data and guidelines for the correct data analysis. Participants will be able to open their FCS files with the offline data
analysis software, explore their data using various display options, perform gating, and quickly generate graphical and statistical reports to identify various populations of interest. Potential technical issues with the data will also be discussed. Study material will be provided that will include lectures, published articles and Purdue Cytometry list discussions.
