 This section was specifically set up to encourage communication between cytometrists in both clinical and research laboratories. Committee members are nominated from the RMS membership, to represent the views of all cytometer users, and collectively to act as a point of contact for information and advice. This is a National Flow Cytometry Society, and is recognised by the International Society for Analytical Cytology (ISAC) as an 'Associated Society'.

Our role in education
Training courses are organised and run at regular intervals. These range from half-day workshops integrated into conferences run by other scientific societies, to single-day workshops and meetings, culminating with a one week comprehensive course.
Future events include:
Flow Cytometric Analysis of Cell Proliferation and Cell Death 1 December 2008
The Practicalities of Flow Cytometry 11th February 2009
flowcytometryUK 2009 15 - 17 July 2009
Our role in improving communication
Committee members can always be approached for help and advice, and for networking with other cytometrists. We are keen to promote the use of the Internet and email and have our own website CytonetUK which links to many more sites.
