Training

Please reserve the calendar in iLab

Consists of three 1-hour hands-on training sessions. These are one-on-one instrument operation sessions with flow core staff. Student must agree to schedule these 3 sessions with-in a two-week period.
Student needs to understand some flow cytometry theory before the first session. We require that one of the “Introduction to Flow Cytometry” videos (listed below) be viewed for persons new to flow cytometry.

For the first 2 sessions, the Flow Core will provide all training samples. During these sessions, the student will practice instrument operations using fluorescent beads. We suggest that the student brings a few of their own samples on the third training class for a more “real world” experience (this is not a requirement).
Cost: $100 (This cost is recouped in less than 4-hours of self-use instrument operation when compared to having one of the core staff operate the instrument)
Advantages
Cost Effective
Access to instrument during non-business hours (including weekends and holidays)
Experience with this technique can enhance your CV.
