Hello Flowers,
Here is another update on the program for the Dartmouth Course on Flow
Cytometry and Fluorescence Imaging. As many of you know, the Course
is similar to the "research" course given at Los Alamos in June, but with a
more clinical emphasis. Brochures and applications forms are available from
ClinCourse@dartmouth.edu.
If there are any folks out there who are still
wanting to register, send those forms in as soon as possible!
