BMS 631 Flow Cytometry: Theory (2 CR Course) - 2023 Course Notes

This page is for the use of students who are taking BMS 631

2023 Notes - Location: Vet Path Research Bldg 119

This is a 2 credit course that is designed to bring a student up to date on the technology of flow cytometry. The course will be lecture based and will require students to give a short seminar at the conclusion of the semester which will be part of the final grade. The course starts with the historical discovery of the technology and will move to discussing each of the individual components - optics, electronics, fluidics, data processing and analysis. In addition, we will cover all of the current applications. At the conclusion of the course, students will have an excellent understanding of the field and will be capable of reading, interpreting and carrying out studies using this technology.

Seminars should be 10-15 minutes and must not exceed 20 minutes, you must provide the PPT overview to me at minimum 2 weeks prior to review. I suggest that as soon as you have a topic and some preliminar notes, you discuss this with me so that I can guide you down the best pathway. If I have not reviewed and agreed to your presentation materials, you will automatically lose 50% of the points for this seminar. The whole purpose is to ensure that you present a high quality seminar relevent to the topis, and that your materials are accurate. A copy of your final PPT will be retained and we reserve the right to post this on the web with other seminars if we believe it would be useful to the scientific public. I will not review a seminar with 48 hours of your presentation, unless it has already been given to me for reveiw on at least one previous occasion.
