Title:
Single
Cell Analysis Using Flow Cytometer: Technologies and Applications
Abstract:
Flow
cytometer based single cell analysis is one of major success to use Laser
and fluorescence dye labeling for cell biology and medical clinic
applications. It combines the Laser and optoelectronics technology with
fluorescence labeled anti-bodies for cell marker identification and cell
sorting. Single cell based analysis and sorting allows to identifying
cells in rare event rather than assembly average. This talk will give an
overview the history of flow cytometer technology development and
applications. It also will discuss the recent development in the areas of
cytometer technologies and biological and medical applications, and the
opportunities and challenges of cell analysis using cytometry in general.
Biography:
Dr.
Ming Yan is a principal systems engineer at the BD Biosciences in San
Jose. In BD, he has worked in the areas of cytometer instrumentation and
architecture development, systems performance characterization and
standardization. He also worked in the area of optical and laser
technologies during his career including optical waveguide for
communication, Laser spectroscopy and microscope for organic and
biological materials. He has published over 50 papers and 6 patents in
those areas. He received his Ph.D. degree in electrical engineering from
the City University of New York, and his B.S. in physics from Fudan
University, China. Prior to joining BD Biosciences, he also held
engineering and managing position at Lightwave Micro and Neophotonics
Corp, and staff positions at Lawrence Livermore National lab and AT&T
Bell Laboratories.
