| + | We provide training in cell sorting to researchers falling into one of the following categories: | ||
| + | * Projects involving a lot of cell sorts (1-2 x per week) for at least a couple of months. | ||
| + | * Users who often need to sort outside of service hours (e.g. unexpected patient samples, which have to be processed immediately). | ||
| + | * Technicians from research groups who are willing to handle all sorts of the whole research group. | ||
| + | |||
| + | All requests for cell sorter training have to be approved by the facility head. | ||
| + | |||
| + | **Prerequisite for sorter training** | ||
| + | |||
| + | We expect that you are able to operate an analyzer (BD LSR Fortessa or BD LSR Fortessa X-20) independently. We observed that users without practical experience in FACS Diva software have massive difficulties during the first training sessions. If you were trained on a different instrument, we highly recommend using one of our analyzers to make yourself familiar with this software before the start of the sorter training. | ||

| + | To operate our equipments you must attend the 2,5 hour session on the Principles of Flow Cytometry. If you haven’t already, please [[TrainingPrinciplesFlow|book your Session]]. | ||

| This 2 hour session is open to anyone who wishes to understand how to sort, optimize their sorting experiments, or simply to improve their cell sorting skills. It covers the fundamental principles of FACS (Fluorescence Activated Cell Sorting), and all the concepts for better planning, executing, and analyzing the sorting experiments. | This 2 hour session is open to anyone who wishes to understand how to sort, optimize their sorting experiments, or simply to improve their cell sorting skills.
