Pre-print alert! And this one really is a must read for anyone that does spectral #flowcytometry. It is a complete, fully-automated spectral unmixing pipeline that reduces error up to 9000-fold.

Want to get a tough sample, like lung, looking like this? Read more!

Hi folks! As we work on building a new website in the IU framework, please go to this temporary site - iubfccf.wixsite.com/iubfccf. It may be missing a few things, but it has the important stuff. 😁
Good news is that many IU sites are now back up and running. 🥳

Your yearly reminder to acknowledge the core facilities you use and their staff scientists in your papers. These scientists are a crucial part of the scientific ecosystem and to continue to exist they need tangible credit for their work. Plus their associated expertise adds credibility to your work.
