Greetings, The Northwest Regional Cytometry Association and the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center are organizing a seminar devoted to Laser Scanning Cytometry on Tuesday, November 18, from 8:30am until 12:00pm, entitled “Quantitative Imaging Cytometry in Biomedical Research, Drug Discovery and Biomarker Development.” This workshop is a great introduction to the use of quantitative image analysis in biomedical research. For planning purposes, we kindly request that any interested parties register for the meeting. Also, anyone who is interested in bringing sample slides for the instrument demo (tissue sections, TMAs, etc...) should contact Raffi manoukian ([hidden email]) for a quick feasibility assessment by November 7 (end of this week). Program of talks and registration info can be found below. The presentations include: · “Regulation of Cell Cycle Transitions” – James Jacobberger, Professor of Oncology, Case Western Reserve University and Director, Cell Analysis Core, Case Comprehensive Cancer Center, Cleveland, OH · “Assessment of DNA Damage Response in Relation to Cell Cycle and Induction of Apoptosis by Laser Scanning Cytometry” - Zbigniew Darzynkiewicz, Director, Brander Cancer Research Institute, New York Medical College, Valhalla, NY · “Coupling Fine Needle Aspirates with Imaging Cytometry to Sample Caspase-3 Activation in Tumors”, Stephen J. Zoog, PhD, Senior Scientist, Clinical Immunology, Translational Medicine, Amgen Inc., Thousand Oaks, CA. · “Laser Scanning Cytometry: Quantitative Imaging Cytometry in Life Sciences, Drug Discovery and Research Pathology” - Raffi Manoukian, Sr. Scientist, CompuCyte Corporation, Westwood, MA. We will also offer an opportunity on November 18 and 19 to see a demonstration of the iCys® Research Imaging Cytometer. There will be an opportunity as well to have your samples evaluated on the instrument. The meeting takes place in conference room B1-072 of the Weintraub Building at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center in Seattle. Instrument demo will be in Scientific Imaging Shared resource, room DE-512 of Thomas building. The meeting, demonstration and sample evaluation are free of charge; however, advance registration for the seminar, demonstration, and/or sample evaluation would be appreciated. Please email Raffi Manoukian at CompuCyte Corporation ([hidden email]) if you wish to attend. Directions and Campus maps can be found here: http://www.fhcrc.org/about/maps/driving_directions.html Visitors may park in the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center visitor parking.
