Hello!

Standard BioTools (formerly Fluidigm) is proud to announce a new collaboration with the Leiden University Medical Center (LUMC) to establish our first European Reference Center. By combining extensive expertise in high-dimensional cytometry and high-dimensional imaging, the LUMC will have access to the new CyTOF XT™. The reference center will be used for showcases, demonstrations, trainings and method development in collaboration with Fluidigm. 

At this grand opening, you will also have the opportunity to see the CyTOF XT live, together with top-class lectures from an array of amazing scientists.
