leukemia/lymphoma phenotyping;
platelet and reticulocyte analysis;
FISH analysis and chromosome painting;
tumor imaging for DNA, proliferation markers, and hormone receptors;
multiparameter cell cycle and ploidy analysis;
quality control and standardization;
immunodeficiency;
CD34 stem cell analysis;
leukocyte functional assays;
apoptosis;
transplantation.
WHO: Participating faculty will include Drs. Kenneth Ault, Bruce Bagwell,
Nigel Carter, Zbigniew Darzynkiewicz, Charles Goolsby, Paul Guyre, James
Jacobberger, Norman Levy, Katharine Muirhead, David Murray, Gregory Stelzer,
