We provide flow cytometry training to members of the research community and students of the College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences. Investigators from other LIU-Brooklyn departments are welcome to our facility. We are dedicated to providing the best training possible to ensure the best results attainable. The technology aids in cell counting, detecting biomarkers in complex subpopulations, identification and isolation of cancer stem cells, and functional assays.
