This week the 1st EuroFlow Summer school takes place in Salamanca, Spain. The EuroFlow Summer School is designed to train already experienced clinical flow cytometrists, and introduce them to EuroFlow procedures, analysis of the EuroFlow panels and use of its associated databases in InfinicytTM. This 1st EuroFlow Summer school focusses on the analysis and interpretation of the EuroFlow Screening tubes: ALOT, LST, SST, PCST and PIDOT. Each tube is introduced individually with the rationale behind the choice of markers per panel, and in-depth review of each population to be identified in normal and pathological samples, as well as per sample type. In addition to manual analysis, automated gating and interpretation of the analysis will be presented and trained.

24 Students from all over the world have come to Salamanca to learn fromexperienced EuroFlow lecturers. Besides educational lectures, participants are given case files to solve in small groups and they can follow a Wet-lab module.

The 1st EuroFlow Summer school is the start of a series of educational activities which are in development by the EuroFlow consortium. Please keep an eye on the website www.euroflow.org for future activities.
