Enough Events, or Not Enough? That Is Not the Question |

Tuesday, 06 May 2008 |
If you don't have a subscription to Cytometry Part A, it is highly recommend that you borrow a friend's or coworker's copy (or username and password) and check out the recent article by Mario Roederer, How many events are enough? Are you sure? (Cytometry Pt. A, Volume 73A, Issue 5, Pages 384-385 Published Online: 28 Feb 2008). In this communication to the editor Dr. Roederer lays out the rationale for looking at events not as "positive" or "real", but instead asking the question, "do the events represent what the researcher claims they are." Whether you are new to flow, or are a genuine flow master, Dr. Roederer's communication offers insight into what event numbers and percentages really mean in flow, and what types of questions researchers should ask in interpreting their data.

migration to other parts of the body.
