Meet Your Presenter:
| Timothy Bushnell, Ph.D. Dr. Tim Bushnell is currently the scientific and technical director of the flow cytometry core facility at the University of Rochester, which supports the research of 110 PIs. Dr. Bushnell’s main research focus is the development and application of high-end flow cytometric assays to support the research programs of members of the URMC community. One of his great strengths is in being able to collaborate with researchers in a wide variety of fields and disciplines. He has a passion for developing flow cytometry applications, in particular, a current project involving applying imaging cytometry to the detection of minimal residual disease. His efforts have helped the URMC receive two SIG grants for flow cytometry instrumentation acquisition in the last 4 years, and he has also served on study section for flow cytometry S10 grants. Additionally, he is involved in education and training in flow cytometry as well as servicing on the council of the International Society for the Advancement of Cytometry. |
