Dear Colleagues,

On behalf of the ISAC Council and the CYTO Organizing and Program Committees, it is my pleasure to invite you to participate in CYTO 2012: ISAC’s XXVII Congress.  CYTO supports the Society’s mission to advance the development of cytometry technologies and biological applications by presenting a variety of scientific and educational activities to serve the increasing demands of our expanding community. 

The first two CYTO conferences in Seattle and Baltimore were well received, both scientifically and commercially. We are excited to bring CYTO to Leipzig, an historical crossroad of Europe, for the first ISAC Congress in Europe since Budapest in 2008.  The unique scientific and commercial strengths of Leipzig and the State of Saxony will make an interesting backdrop for an excellent program.

We look forward to seeing you in Leipzig.

John Nolan
ISAC President-Elect and CYTO 2012 Chair
