Here's a more complete schedule for "The Tenth Annual Clinical Course on Flow and Image Cytometry," which is being held this year at Dartmouth Medical School in New Hampshire, USA from July 27 to August 1. This is a course (not a meeting) and includes hands-on laboratory work in small groups (6-8 students per group), expert lectures, and opportunities for informal discussion. Total enrollment limited to 40-50 students. Emphasis will be on basic theory as well as its practical application in the clinical laboratory. (Up to 40 hours continuing medical education credit is available.) Keynote addresses "Sorting and Painting Chromosomes," Nigel Carter "Apoptosis: Methods of Detection and Relevence in Clinical Oncology," Zbigniew Darzynkiewicz Lectures include: "Clinical Cytometry: Seeing the Forest for the Trees...," Howard M.
