CYTFC core facility is managed by Dr Nicolas Dauguet. Flow cytometry technology allows simultaneous multiparametric analysis of thousands of cells per second, enabling trained users to rapidly analyze complex cell populations based on phenotypic and functional features.
High-speed assisted cell sorting services provide researchers with physical separation of identified cell populations, for any down-stream characterizations.
The main mission of the platform is to provide a high quality service and assist researchers with their flow cytometry experiments. Another key point is to provide a high-level of education to the researchers so that they achieve autonomy with their research projects. It means autonomy with the use of the equipments but also with the design of their experiments and data analysis.
