The focus of this conference will be on advanced technology for flow
cytometry, image analysis, and cell separation including cell sorting.
Both the scientific and engineering communities are invited to submit
abstracts. Companies who manufacture components relevant to analytical
cytology are invited to have their scientific and/or engineering staff
submit technical
papers characterizing their technologies.
The suggested topics include, but are not limited to, the following areas:
- new analytical parameters and probes
- time-based detection systems
- new methods for cell separation
- high-speed sorting and analysis of cells and other biological objects
- multiparameter cell analysis
- new digital image analysis technology including advances in 3D imaging
- new components for analytical cytology instrumentation
- new dyes and probes
- new and unusual applications of analytical cytology
