At the end of October, Ági attended the EMBO Practical Course “The Fundamentals of High-End Cell Sorting” at EMBL Heidelberg. The week-long course combined expert lectures on experimental design, sample preparation, data analysis, and quality control with two days of hands-on training in conventional, spectral, and imaging cell sorting. The practical sessions also provided plenty of opportunity to discuss technical questions directly with experienced scientists and core facility leaders from across Europe. It was a fantastic opportunity to deepen expertise in flow cytometry, exchange experiences, and connect with colleagues from the field.
