The main thing that struck me during the 2022 ChUG Cytometry Workshop held in November is the incredible amount of tools that were developed over the last few years to make of flow cytometry lives easier. Amongst them is the EasyPanel online algorithm that rapidly...
For the longest time, I've been very reluctant to suggest any freeware for flow data analysis. A lot of these solutions are not supported all that well, or are fairly complicated to use. But I saw a tweet over the Thanksgiving break about an online platform called...
I'm mad at myself. I remember seeing a bunch of tweets about something called AutoSpill back in 2021, and completely ignored it being the luddite that I am. But while preparing for the 2022 ChUG Workshop, I revisited the question and realized the errors of my ways....
Laura and I attended the 2022 ABRF (Association of Biomolecular Resources Facilities) meeting. Laura's 'A Tale of Two Cytometry Platforms' on getting quality data in spectral flow was, in my opinion, the highlight of the meeting, and was very well received. She was...
I've been looking for sterility-designed cell sorter for a while and have organized a Tyto demo for our users in 2018 and 2019. I'd like to share what I've learned so far. Let me get some stuff out of the way before we start: 1 – I’m not thinking of the Tyto as a...
We just came back from the Great Lakes International Imaging and Flow Cytometry Association held in Troy, Michigan. While it remains a hidden gem for the greater research community, it is an inescapable meeting for core facility people in the field of flow...
