Program

The ICCS Virtual Course program will be created from both live events and pre-recorded (on-demand) events.

The live events will take place July 28-29, 2022 and will be recorded. Recorded material will be available on-demand to view at a time which is convenient to you and will be available until September 1, 2022.

Times listed below are based on Eastern Time (ET).

LIVE EVENT DATES
Thursday, July 28 - Friday, July 29

The program is expected to start at 10:00 am ET each day. There will be general sessions, networking opportunities and hands-on interactive sessions for both beginners and those with more experience.

The beginner track is recommended for those who have less than 3 years experience in data analysis and interpretation for clinical leukemia/lymphoma flow cytometry samples. It is designed to provide a solid introduction to leukemia and lymphoma flow cytometry, presenting common entities encountered in the flow lab and how to identify them. There will be interactive cases presentations focusing on classic phenotypes of common entities.

The experienced track is recommended for those who feel comfortable with data analysis and interpretation of routine leukemia, lymphoma, and myeloma cases. It is designed to present more challenging and nuanced cases that are not as straightforward as well as more advanced topics and applications of flow cytometry – like assessment for minimum residual disease.
