Cell suicide is not painless for the flow cytometrist: new assays to measure cell death
Workshop - London, United Kingdom
This interactive workshop will discuss numerous new assays and approaches to measure autophagy in living cells by flow cytometry, image flow cytometry and fluorescent microscopy as well as new approaches to the measurement of apoptosis. Autophagic cell death has been implicated in cancer and neurodegenerative disorders resulting in new approaches to the treatment of such diseases. The workshop will include talks with questions & answer sessions on a autophagic gene knockdown approach to the study of autophagy as well as the measurement of the autophagosome microtubule, LC3B and lysosome recruitment during the autophagic process in numerous fields of biology including melanoma, immunology as well as cell senescence.
This meeting is for obviously people studying autophagy and also researchers in areas such as cancer treatments and neurodegenerative disorders as well as flow cytometrists
