The course have lectures and homework assignments to be completed between lectures.

Learning outcomes

After the course, the students will be able to:
• Develop plans to execute multiple types of flow cytometry experiments applicable to their own research.
• Design their own experimental antibody panels for multiple types of experiments applicable to their research.
• Analyse flow cytometry data, from the raw flow cytometry data, and to make publication ready figures from the analysed data.

Contents

This course covers the basic principles of flow cytometry, flow cytometry experimental applications, and flow cytometry data analysis. The course participants also practice hands on design of flow cytometry experiments, and analysis of flow cytometry data.
