Immune monitoring assays are critical to vaccine and immunotherapy trials, and span a wide range of techniques, including many newer multicolor flow cytometry assays. As a group manager at BD Biosciences, I spent the last nine years working on optimization and standardization of assays including: intracellular cytokine staining, CD107 degranulation assays, combined tetramer and functional assays, BrdU and CFSE proliferation assays. I offer assistance with any of these assays, with their use in clinical trials, or with: design of multicolor flow cytometry panels, review of flow cytometry-related data, manuscripts, etc. Please e-mail me (hmaecker@yahoo.com) for rates and details.
