Flow Cytometry Core

The UMMC Cancer Center and Research Institute Flow Cytometry Core provides state-of-the-art flow cytometry analysis and related services to the UMMC research community and affiliated institutions.

The core provides flow cytometry analysis and sorting, as well as consultation for experimental design and data interpretation. A trained operator is available to assist with instrument set-up as well as running and analysis of samples.

Before scheduling the first appointment, investigators meet with facility staff to discuss experiment plans to avoid potential pitfalls and optimize the time spent on the machine(s). In addition, a training course consisting of individual help sessions tailored to specific research needs is available upon request.
