Day 36 of #LMB365 shows flow cytometry tubes waiting to be analysed. Flow cytometry is used to measure and analyse multiple physical characteristics of individual cells in suspension. This particular experiment from Julian Sale’s lab in the PNAC Division is evaluating protein expression changes on the surface of cells in response to chemotherapeutic drugs that interfere with DNA replication. It forms part of a project funded by the Blue Skies collaboration with AstraZeneca.
