RMS Flow Cytometry Medal

Jan 21 2018

We are now accepting nominations for the 2018 RMS Medal for Flow Cytometry. The aim of the award is to celebrate and mark outstanding scientific achievements to scientists applying flow cytometry in the field of immunology or cell biology.

The medal will be awarded once every two years at the flowcytometryUK meetings, the next one being scheduled for July 2018. The award will normally be made to nominees who have engaged in independent research for less than 10 years.

Dr Karen Hogg, winner of the 2016 medal, is an experimental officer in the University of York’s Department of Biology’s Imaging and Cytometry Technology Facility. She has provided expert scientific service within the laboratory and has taken a lead role in the operation and method development of MoFlo Astrios Cell Sorter and Flow Analysers.

Dr Hogg is seen as a research and information resource both within and external to the Department of Biology and provides appropriate guidance, training and advice to users. She collaborates with academic and research staff on innovative techniques and applications, delivers lectures to the MSc students and tutors for internal and external practical courses.

Nominations should be sent to Debbie Hunt. Nominators should submit a curriculum vitae for the nominee and a statement (maximum length 1 page) outlining the merits of the candidate and their suitability for the medal.
