Avian Immunology Flow Cytometry Symposium

The British Society for Immunology Comparative and Veterinary Immunology Group, in collaboration with the Veterinary Biocontained facility Network (VetBioNet), are delighted to announce the first Avian Immunology Flow Cytometry Symposium on Monday 21 and Tuesday 22 March 2022 in Edinburgh and online. The symposium sets out to demonstrate the progress being made in flow cytometry techniques within the field of avian immunological research.

On the afternoon of Monday 21 March, expert speakers across the field of avian immunology will demonstrate current efforts to study the phenotype and function of avian immune cells. This free online event is open to everyone.

On Tuesday 22 March, a limited number of participants can attend an in-person workshop at the Roslin Institute, University of Edinburgh, to provide novice and experienced avian researchers with insights into flow cytometry techniques, pitfalls, reagents and analytical practices. Attendees of the workshop will be selected based on abstract submission and prior flow cytometry experience or a need for flow cytometry in future projects.
