Kathleen McGrath<\/h2>\n
Kathleen graduated from Reed College with a BA in biology and went on to get her PhD from the University of Rochester Biology Department in Molecular Biology.\u202f In her training, she happily focused on cell biology enjoying generating numbers with error bars.\u202f Microscopy seemed a fuzzy science, pretty but how would she get a number from it?\u202f However, in her research in the field of hematopoiesis, she has studied many different lineages where microscopy was critical to understanding their biology.\u202f When the first commercial imaging flow cytometer became available in 2005, it provided the power of images that could be turned into numbers with error bars!\u202f Since then, imaging flow cytometry has been a critical tool, alongside classic flow cytometry, as she tries to unlock the complexity of how hematopoiesis is formed during embryogenesis and how it is reformed after injury.\u202f\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nKathleen, along with a high proportion of other flow cytometrists, likes to cook.\u202f She also spends an inordinate amount of time planning Disney vacations and doing other logic puzzles.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_4,3_4″ _builder_version=”4.3.4″ width=”80%” max_width=”1393px” box_shadow_style=”preset1″ locked=”off”][et_pb_column type=”1_4″ _builder_version=”4.3.4″][et_pb_blurb title=”Kathy Murihead” image=”https:\/\/conferences.union.wisc.edu\/flowcytometry\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2024\/04\/Kathy-Muirhead.jpg” _builder_version=”4.3.4″ text_orientation=”center” custom_margin=”|||15px|false|false” border_radii_image=”on|15px|15px|15px|15px”][\/et_pb_blurb][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”3_4″ _builder_version=”4.3.4″][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.3.4″]<\/p>\n

Alan Saluk<\/h2>\n
I first had the joy of being exposed to flow cytometry and cell sorting in 1989 while working as a college intern at The Coulter Corporation in Miami, FL. After graduating with a Biology BS from University of Florida in 1992, I then worked in the Applied Research Division at Coulter, being involved in assay development and technologies related to cytometry and other scientific instrumentation until 1998. After a yearlong round the world surfing sabbatical, I then relocated to San Diego to join the Flow Core at The Scripps Research Institute in La Jolla, CA. The TSRI Core Facility earned a reputation for collaborative development and testing new technologies under flow guru Joseph Trotter. Here the first digital analyzers and sorters were evaluated and in 2001, Joe moved to work in BD Biosciences while I became Acting Director of the Core and then eventually Director in 2002. The Core continued testing new technologies and pushing the envelope with new instrumentation and advanced applications. Education has always been a priority, and I became involved in teaching by presenting various lectures and tutorials at CYTO and then becoming part of the CYTO Live Education Task Force in 2010-2020. This gave me the opportunity to teach cytometry in emerging areas (including China, India, Turkey, South Africa, and the US) with a group of amazing colleagues. The TSRI flow core was one of the early adopters of spectral technology and has continued assessing and evaluating new spectral technologies and as well continuing to support researchers in the San Diego area. In 2021 I was promoted to Sr. Scientific Director and have enjoyed training and working with new cytometrists and helping advance the science at The Scripps Research Institute. I am genuinely looking forward to joining the Annual Course in Flow Cytometry as an instructor and repaying the favor (as I last attended this same course in 2001 as a participant).<\/p>\n
