SUMMARY:Cell suicide is not painless for the flow cytometrist: new assays 
 to measure cell death - Speaker to be confirmed
DTSTART:20121107T090000Z
DTEND:20121107T170000Z
UID:TALK38855@talks.cam.ac.uk
CONTACT:Dr Shara Cohen
DESCRIPTION: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 th
 e measurement of apoptosis. Autophagic cell death has been implicated in c
 ancer and neurodegenerative disorders resulting in new approaches to the t
 reatment 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\, LC
 3B and lysosome recruitment during the autophagic process in numerous fiel
 ds of biology including melanoma\, immunology as well as cell senescence.\

 studying autophagy\, researchers in areas such as cancer treatments and ne
 urodegenerative disorders\, flow cytometrists\n
