901303 Cytometer Technologies for Autonomous Platforms : Questions to science users This page last changed on Apr 24, 2013 by oreilly. 1. If a cytometer were available on an AUV, how would you use it? - what science question would you address? What paper would you write? - what observational challenges do you face? - coastal zones vs. open ocean, eddies, midwater vs. surface 2. Range of target organisms in mixed populations? - size range - concentration range - methods of discrimination (optical, fluorescent properties, etc) 3. Which features are more or less important? - value of imaging (on-demand, occasional, primary) - value of physical sorting, pick-and-accumulate - real time or post processing - fluorescent labeling - traditional gating vs. computational population ID (how to find rare and hidden populations) 4. Value of new features of integration on autonomous mobile platform? - adaptive behavior, contextual sensors data - real-time data for reconnaissance and surveying - persistent presence, high-res 5. Any new trends in cytometry, alternative approaches, etc or you aware of?
