CYTO 2012 Sponsorship Opportunities Dear Colleagues: It is my pleasure to announce the sponsorship opportunities for CYTO 2012, ISAC’s XXVII International Congress, to be held from June 23-27 in Leipzig, Germany. In 2010, ISAC successfully rebranded the ISAC Congress as the CYTO conference, incorporating revised scientific and educational offerings and an annual schedule that helps us facilitate the rapid advancement of cytometry technologies and applications, as well as their geographic spread. 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. The CYTO conference supports the Society’s mission to advance the development of cytometry technologies and their biological applications by presenting a variety of scientific and educational activities to serve the increasing demands of our expanding community. CYTO 2012 will incorporate the same successful features as previous CYTO conferences:
- State-of-the-Art Cytometry Lectures addressing Technology, Science and Biomedicine - launch the congress with a set of presentations that capture the latest developments in quantitative cell analysis
- Frontiers Lectures - featured presentations on cutting edge cytometry technology and applications presented by leaders in their fields
- Plenary Talks - themed sessions providing a comprehensive view of the state of the art in specific areas of cytometry technology and application
- The CYTO Symposium - this special one day program reflects the strengths in science of the host region and provides a distinct platform for partnered-events
- Parallel & Poster Sessions - for membership participation via submitted abstracts with an expanded process of peer review creating a high-value program
- Interest Development Groups - opportunities for CYTO to serve as a forum to advance new cytometry-related technologies or biological applications
- Workshops - covering topics that respond to the state of the science of cytometry and the current needs of the membership and with a strong input from affiliated organizations
- Introductory Courses and Scientific Tutorials - Educational offerings that precede the congress tailored for cytometrists with basic, intermediate, and advanced levels of experience
- Day-delegate deals and other innovations to in inject local attendance and exhibition through-put
