There may be some confusion regarding the future locations of the
Clinical Flow and Image Cytometry Courses. In the past, the Clinical
Applications course had two parts (A and B) which were held
consecutively, at the same location. Part A focuses on laboratory
exercises and includes lecture and discussion sessions intended to teach
basic principles and emerging areas of clinical applications of
cytometry (generally 5 or 6 days in length), while Part B focuses on
practical clinical applications of cytometry in the evaluation of patient
samples (~2 days).
For the past three years, the two parts, when held, have been at
different times and locations. This comming summer (July, 1997), Part A
of the Clinical Course will be held at Dartmouth Medical Center (Hanover,
NH), while Part B will be held in conjunction with the Charleston Clinical
Applications of Cytometry meeting (August 23-24, 1997). For further
information regarding this year's Part A course, please contact Paul
Wallace (802-649-2521); for further information regarding Part B this
year, please contact Maryalice Stetler-Stevenson (301-402-1424), or Rick
Duque (941-687-1498).
In 1998, the course will return to its previous format, in that both Part
A and Part B will be held consecutively, at Northwestern University
Medical Center, Chicago, IL (date to be determined). For further
information regarding the 1998 course, contact the course directors:
