Immediately following this year’s Annual Scientific Meeting in Sydney there will be a Train the Trainer Workshop in the newly refurbished BD Training Facility in Macquarie Research Park from Thursday 11th November 2010 until Friday 12th November 2010. It is envisaged that the workshop will be completed by lunch-time on the Friday afternoon.
The workshop will comprise a general overview of training operators in resource poor countries, dissemination of the BD training materials and hands-on operation of the BD FACSCount™ instrument. Participation will be free of charge.
It is hoped that out of town attendees to the Meeting who are keen to participate in such a workshop will use this opportunity to extend their stay in Sydney for this purpose.
