CYTO 2024: 50 Years of Flow Cytometry Innovation

BD Biosciences is proud to be a Platinum Sponsor at the International Society for Advancement of Cytometry CYTO 2024 event in Edinburgh, Scotland.

 

50 years ago, BD introduced the first commercial fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) instrument, changing the field of biology forever, and introduced scientists to an unprecedented view into the trillions of single cells in our body that dictate health and disease. We've come a long way since then, and we still have so far to go. 


This year, we will be showcasing the BD FACSDiscover S8 Cell Sorter with BD CellView Image Technology and BD SpectralFX Technology, BD FACSymphony A5 SE Cell Analyzer, BD FACSymphony S6 SE Cell Sorter, BD Horizon RealBlue and BD Horizon RealYellow Reagents, BD RhapsodyHT Xpress System and the BD FACSDuet Premium Sample Preparation System. Also learn about our flow cytometry tools in BD® Research Cloud and data analysis with FlowJo Software. Stop by our booth, see our posters or join a session to learn more about how we are advancing the world of cytometry.


Come learn about our new assays:

  • BD Rhapsody ATAC-Seq Assay: Multiomic assay to support your single-cell epigenomics studies
  • BD Rhapsody TCR/BCR Next Multiomic Assay: Our next generation, high performing immune profiling assay to support your single-cell immunology experiments


Not able to attend the show or want a sneak peak of our new assays? Connect with a single-cell multiomics specialist today!
