Advancing Cell Analysis, Revealing Biology
Join us for our 2026 Horizon NEXT Global Tour, which will build on foundational cytometry principles to demonstrate how thoughtful fluorochrome selection, structured panel design, robust data analysis and realtime imaging can collectively elevate your ability to reveal biology.
Who Should Attend?
- Scientists designing and running flow cytometry panels
- Researchers exploring spectral flow cytometry and real-time imaging
- Those looking to improve panel design for greater efficiency and deeper insights.
Where
University Cattolica del Sacro Cuore
Sala Italia del Centro Congressi Europa
Largo Francesco Vito n. 1, Rome
Agenda: Horizon NEXT Educational Seminar
| Registration | 10.00-10:30 |
| Foundation for high-performance spectral panels: Pair optimization | 10:30-11:15 |
| Learn how fluorochrome behavior shapes panel success. We will highlight how fluorochrome brightness, spillover and performance guide antigen assignment. From simple to complex combinations, you’ll see how intentional fluorochrome pairing creates strong, reliable panel foundations. | |
| Achieve consistency in panel design: A structured approach | 11:15-12:00 |
| Learn how strategic fluorochrome assignment drives reproducible results. Using three panels from 13 to 29 colors, we’ll show how structured design based on validated T-cell markers leads to consistent performance across donors and replicates—ensuring your panels work reliably, experiment after experiment. | |
| Quality and insights from biological data: A case study | 12:00-12:45 |
| Learn how thoughtful design leads to clear biological interpretation. Using FlowJo™ Software to analyze a 20-color dataset from multiple donors, this module demonstrates how robust panel construction supports quality data, confident interpretation and meaningful biological insights across age groups. | |
| Question and Answer Session | 12:45-13:00 |
| Social Lunch and Meet the Speakers | 13:00-14:00 |
| CAR-T cell therapy for solid tumors: current challenges and future directions. | 14:00-15:00 |
| Guest Speaker : Prof. Andreas Mackensen, Dept. of Hematology/Oncology, University Hospital of Erlangen, Germany | |
| Live Streaming of the IUIS-EFIS Webinar for the Day of Immunology 2026 | 15:00-17:00 |
| Regulatory T Cells: Guardians of Immune Balance. |
