Hi Vincent,

I'm developing an analysis program, based on FCS Assistant, called
FCSPress. So far it's quite rudimentary and only allows you to plot
histograms. It doesn't do gating or analysis yet. And there is little
support for the edit menu functions (cut, copy, paste, undo). Unlike
most
cytometry programs available on the mac, it allows you to open a data
file
and optionally manipulate its contents, graphs are plotted from the
active
data window into graph windows,

At the show we'll be releasing FlowJo Version 4. We've got new
platforms for overlaying and clustering, we've made it work better
across the Internet, added all sorts of new conveniences, and spiffed
it up with the new OS X look and feel. What was already the best
analysis software in flow cytometry has gotten a whole lot better. At
the meeting, Tree Star is proud to be sponsoring the CyberCafe, your
link to home and responsibility while you're in carefree San Diego.
Check your email, surf the web, download the slides you'll be
presenting at ten. A cadre of California companies has ontributed to
bring in a premier local roaster to satisfy all your latte urges. We
hope you'll all drop by and see what we mean when we say we're
committed to Java.

The network is
going
wireless this year. Just pop a 802.11 card in your laptop, and while
your
neighbor plays solitaire through the keynote, you can be reading e-
mail.

We're going to open the CyberCafe with the Second Biennial FlowJo
Users
Group Meeting,. Saturday night May 4 at 8PM. The first user group
meeting
was cancelled for lack of interest when Dave Novo brought in a case
and a
half of French wine, so this year we're going to try real hard to
assemble
to the point where we can see the show of hands on something before we
disband in search of alcohol. We'll have a whole bunch of Macs
running
FlowJo v4 under OS X, and you can bring your own data and get into big
arguments about compensation. Be the first to get the newest FlowJo
t-shirt.
All you Windows fans out the**re, come by our booth to see FlowJo
running on a PC! We'll be previewing the long awaited Java version of
FlowJo. We're still not ready to release it,

but we'll be giving a peak as to what
it is going to do.
For those who haven't found it yet, we've unveiled a spanking new

Hello Kate,

The FC 500 data files are indeed a complicated beast that give you a
lot
of information. There are indeed two separate data sets inside the one
FC500 file. This is allowed by the FCS standard.

The first data set is a FCS 2.0 file. This is quite a typical FCS 2.0
file, stored in 10 bit with the data already saved compensated and
converted to log (if necessary). This is quite clever to put it there
because any analysis software that can read FCS 2.0 files should be
able
to read this file, and not even know that there was a second data set
hiding afterwards. I am not sure why the BD CBA software would not be
able to handle this, maybe there is a hidden setting or something that
allows this.

1 week ago
The second data set is a high resolution data set that is in FCS 3.0
format. This contains all the high resolution linear data, that is
stored uncompensated, and is ideal for performing software
compensation.
I guess our web site is either too high, or too low, and fell out of
the
range of your previous search :-) FCS Express can read both the FCS
2.0
and FCS 3.0 portion of the FCS 500 data files. You can even export
them
as individual files if you like. When loading the files you can either
default to load the FCS 2.0 or FCS 3.0 portion, or be prompted which
to
choose.

I also know that WinList can read both portions of the FC500 file. I
am
not familiar with FlowJo's capabilities in this regard. If you contact
them, I am sure they will be glad to answer this point.

Dear Colleagues
We are almost finished one of the most exciting projects we have
done.
It is our new DVD "Cytometry - 60 years of Innovation". It's our
first DVD. Actually, it's a two DVD set - one DVD works on your DVD
player
and
the other on your computer. The contents are really fantastic -
original
video of Mack Fulwyler explaining how he invented the cell sorter,
including pages from his original lab notebook on how he came up with
the ideas...Len Herzenberg showing how he developed the technology
into
something that impacted the whole world. Howard Shapiro - one of us
who
has contributed his life to the field, as well as bringing the key
technology comes to you in song! Dozens of the leaders of the field
tell
us how they see cytometry in the past, present and future. Of course,
there are lots of educational features on the disc as well -
lectures,

1 week ago
powerpoint files galore, and a plethora of educational materials to
enhance your role as a student, staff member, teacher or core
manager.

The way we bring these educational discs free to you all is via our
sponsors. Sony has graciously donated the production from the Indiana
plant - you probably didn't know that your downloaded songs, dvds and
cds are probably mostly produced in good ole' Indiana - but they
are!!

1 week ago
This 60 year celebration of cytometry - brings Diamond Sponsors Bangs
Labs and Beckman-Coulter who lead our sponsors. Both companies bring
a
depth of knowledge and skills to cytometry. Beckman-Coulter started
the
field with the invention by Wallace Coulter of the Coulter counter
over
50 years ago. Bangs Labs has been a leader in bead technology for
many
years. Both companies have been two of our strongest supporters over
the
many years of doing these educational projects. Thank you for that
support.

1 week ago
Major sponsors who generously supported this initiative include
Partec,
Invitrogen, Dako, Guava and John Wiley & Sons, publisher of Cytometry
Part A. These major players in the field of cytometry are known to
all
of you.

We also acknowledge support from Hamamatsu, Southern Biotech,
Compucyte,
Phoenix Flow systems, Spherotech, Accuri Cytometers, EXBIO
Praha,A.S.,
Duke Scientific, Coherent, Q-Imaging and Verity Software. All of
these
companies provide quality cytometry related resources and we are very
grateful for their support of this really exciting educational and
historic project.

1 week ago
Finally, I want to give one last opportunity for any of you to submit
materials that might enhance this project. We have a few days to go
before the project is literally "etched" in plastic! Send your
materials
to Monica Shively, the producer of this project.
(mon...@flowcyt.cyto.purdue.edu ). If you want to see a sneak preview
of
the project, go to http://www.cyto.purdue.edu/flowcyt/cdser...

We will be distributing 10,000 copies of this two DVD boxed set - I
hope
you all get a chance to get a copy. Please ask your sales rep from
one
of the above companies they will all have copies for distribution.

1 week ago
They
are the best source of this historic DVD set. Purdue University
Cytometry Laboratories, who also bring you this discussion board are
pleased to continue bringing innovative projects on cytometry to you.
I
hope you enjoy this one. It's the best we have ever done!

Kind regards

Hello, Dr. Zand,

As a follow-up to your posting on the cytometry mailing list, I should
explain that only the first copy of WinList is $2000 (the "primary
license"), and after that all "additional user licenses" are only $400
each,
for the PC or for the Mac. We also offer a software "battery" option
that
allows you to use WinList for as little as $250.
Please contact me directly to discuss these options in more detail.

Let me add one comment to this... Maciej is right that minor
miscompensation will not affect your results if you are gating on
easily-separable populations. It can strongly affect your results if
you are gating on difficult-to-separate populations ("smears").

Most importantly, it will INVALIDATE your results if you are relying
on MFI (fluorescence intensity) calculations. For those who are doing
MFI analyses, it is absolutely essential to validate your compensation
settings!

Colleagues,

It's very difficult to answer the question "should I
do it by hand or
computer" without the whole context of the specific
scenario when one
fails and the other works.

Instead, we can focus on a broader question "is my
compensationcorrect?"

1 week ago
Mathematically, we can estimate validity of our
compensation matrices
by comparing medians - for example, the median of
the positives is
equal to the median of the negatives. Medians are
better than mean/
GM's because they aren't affected by outliers and
better represent
central tendency of your data.

1 week ago
Since biexponential transformation (aka logicle
display, etc..) became
popular in many software packages, there is an
easier way to 'eyeball'
bad compensation - enable this scaling and see if
your single-
negatives (some call them single-positives, I'm a
sheath tank half-
empty kinda guy ;) ) are symmetrically distributed
around the X=0 /
Y=0 lines similar to your double-negatives. If not,
there's either
over comp, or undercomp. Here's an example, with
hypothetical X/Y
parameter distributions:

1 week ago
http://cd4cd8.com/1.png proper comp -1 % - the X+/Y-
population leans
upward, suggesting undercompensation.
http://cd4cd8.com/2.png proper comp +1% - the X+/Y-
population is
sagging toward X axis. Over comp'd.
http://cd4cd8.com/3.png proper comp (correct values)
- the centers of
X-/Y- and X+/Y- are aligned.

hope this helps,

PS. I vote for pistachio ice cream.

I have people in the lab who complain about me
not doing manual
compensations and instead have the Aria calculate
them for me. And
when I have the Aria compensate, they want to
manually compensate
after they record the data because the plots
"don't look right." I
mean, isn't that simply producing "make-belief"
data? Or am I
missing something?

No this is not acceptable! I'm sorry, I just don't get it! I agree
100% with Roland.

I can't understand your position at all? WHO pays the majority of
the expenses for meetings? Vendors! Without them your cost to attend
ISAC would probably triple or quadruple!! Who allows you to have
very cheap or FREE local users' group meetings? Vendors! Who solves
issues with vendor services?? VENDORS! Why on earth would you
exclude vendors from the discussion???

1 week ago
And actually SOME people welcome messages from vendors... Vendors can
solve a lot of your problems! The Boston Area high speed sorter
list, for example, welcomes vendors responses and they get
results. The vendors HEAR their requests and respond! I've learned
a LOT from vendors! Without messages from Vendors, how do you find
out about new products and services? How often would you go to the
ISAC website to look for a new product you don't even know
exists? Or how do you know there is some training opportunity
happening in your area? OR how do Vendors know what you need and how
do you get your service / technical questions heard by all vendors?

1 week ago
Shutting them out isn't the answer to your mail problems! Roland's
answer was eloquent! And, although we've discussed this often,
nothing has ever evolved that is a better suggestion! If you don't
like messages from vendors, just filter them out, and having
[Company:] in the subject time is a perfect way to do that!

I'm sorry, I just don't get it!! Why would you shoot yourself in
the foot? Vendors - you can put my email address on your mailing
list!! Just put [Company:] in the subject line! I'll filter them
and decide what I want to read or not read later! Just like I filter
this list!

Dear Friends and Colleagues,
Without belaboring the point, while I find this an interesting
suggestion,
it would imply that I should place [Company] in the subject line
because I
work for a company. All rules have their excess, and I would submit
that J
Paul (actually Steve) and company have done a great job maintaining
the
integrity of this list. If an occasional message is allowed thru that
has
potential commercial implications, I would rather have that than
complete
(or no) censorship. If individuals wish to express their displeasure
at a
specific posting (irrespective of the source) this allows discussion,
and
if necessary, re-calibration of the gating algorithm. And regarding
vendors monitoring the list versus actively soliciting messages, I
suspect
that most monitor this list to gather useful information, much of
potential use to their customers. But this is quite different from
"open
access" for solicitation.

1 week ago
While I'm here, some additional comments:
1.) Cost of the ISAC meeting. I find the registration of $650 (US) a
bit
steep for a meeting. While I was on ISAC Council, a resolution was
passed
by Council that the Congress be shortened (in an attempt to reduce
the
registration fee and overall cost) and be held annually. The
combination
of a $650 registration fee plus hotel costs (esp in Europe- for US
scientists) makes it difficult for many labs to bring key technicians
and
post-docs; it even makes it difficult for many senior scientists to
justify. To put this in a bit of perspective, the American Asc for
Cancer
Research charges a $425 (US) registration fee to their members for
their 4
day. An important difference is that the AACR has SIGNIFICANT
industrial
support. We need to do as much as possible to make our meeting's
overall
cost "reasonable". ISAC must do everything it can to keep the overall
meeting costs (registration, airfare, hotels and meals) to a minimum
(this
ain't ASCO).

1 week ago
2.) Vendor support. This is essential for ISAC or any other
professional
society. At one point, I was chair of the committee that raised
donations
for the ISAC Congress, and approached every company that I could think
of
that sold products to our membership quite shamelessly. Every society
does
this because it helps lower the cost of the meeting (or should) for
the
individual attendees. And by the way, the money the vendors use comes
from
the customers. Donations are thus a means to widen the available
attendees
who will buy their products. The approach must be balanced.

1 week ago
3) Meeting location. While I appreciate this is a problematic issue,
refer
back to item "1. At one point, ISAC restricted the Congress to
"smaller"
venues to keep us together. Much science gets discussed (in places
that
tend to serve alcohol) at ISAC, and that's one reason I attend
(discussion, not libations). Where will we gather in Budapest (after
poster sessions)? Unlikely to be the InterContinental Hotel - I
probably
could not afford one beer there.
4) What is the focus of ISAC? I'm running for Clinical Councilor
(sorry, I
too had to get in my pitch), so my potential constituency for the
most
part has a limited focus. But the society needs to have a balanced
focus
on flow and image cytometry. And I don't think that DNA, RNA or
protein
arrays should be our soup!. Our unit of measurement is the cell, and
once
you bust it up, someone with better technical expertise should be
telling
scientists and clinicians what best to do. That said, we should
communicate and work with "non-cellular

Recent FlowJo announcement
From: Steve Kelley (SKELLEY@flowcyt.cyto.purdue.edu)

I know that many people on the mailing list are adamantly opposed to
anything that even looks a little commercial, and to

try to forestall any possible complaints about the FlowJo
announcement, I'll explain what I'd like to see.

In my opinion, announcements about new products, and product updates
are completely appropriate as long as they aren't abused

. I've never wanted to specifically encourage that, because I really
don't want to be put into a position of having to decide whether a
message is an "

announcement"

or an "

advertisement".

2 days ago
The companies involved in our cytometry community have always been
extremely good 'citizens' as far as I can tell.

We have representatives of many companies on the list, and they have
always had the power to make my life miserable, and the list no more
than

junk mail.

Instead, they have helped build this mailing list into one of the most
useful around, through their contributions and responses. oI'm not
going to try to set specific rules about what people can say about
their wn products, and when they can say it. I'll just ask that
everyone continue to show restraint; that the commercial
representatives ask themselves before they submit an announcement
whether they'd mind seeing every other company in the business sending
the same message they are about to, and that the

non- commercial (and anti-commercial) people accept discreet
announcements as simple information,

2 days ago
and continue the sometimes brisk discussions about problems and
benefits of particular products, alongside the purely scientific (and
occasionally purely entertaining) conversation. Steve Steve Kelley
