Dear FLOWers:

Not letting fires, missing tapes, or missing disks deter us, the
National Flow Cytometry Resource will be offering the ANNUAL COURSE
IN FLOW CYTOMETRY next June.  Below is the first announcement of the
course to be held in Los Alamos.  For application materials either
contact me or Ruby Archuleta whose address is listed at the bottom of
the announcement.

All of us at the National Flow Cytometry Resource wish you a Happy
Holiday season!

Jim Jett

ANNUAL COURSE IN FLOW CYTOMETRY

Los Alamos, New Mexico, June 9-15, 2001

Sponsored by:

The Los Alamos National Flow Cytometry Resource (NFCR),
The University of New Mexico School of Medicine, and
Verity Software House

Course Description:  A methods course in flow cytometry will be
offered with special emphasis on applications in cell biology and
immunology.  The faculty consists of distinguished members of the
flow cytometry community.  This course will be aimed toward
individuals with several years of experience in flow cytometry; very
little basic material will be presented.  Lecture subjects will
include:
	immunology,
	cell biology,
	chromosome analysis,
	cytochemistry,
	multivariate analysis,
	fluorescence probes,
	single cell nucleic acid analysis,
	intracellular antigen quantification,
	special applications,
	and new technologies.

Laboratory sessions will address sample preparation, instrument
construction, data collection and analysis, and typical problems
encountered in flow cytometry.	Each participant will receive lecture
and laboratory materials.  In addition, if there is enough interest,
there will be a separate instrumentation laboratory track that will
include sessions on phase sensitive/fluorescence life time
measurements, DNA fragment sizing, sorting/rare event analysis, and
kinetic cytometry.

Details to be finalized soon after the first of the year include
course tuition, faculty and special lecturer.  Stay tuned.
