Biological Sciences (61) In order to enhance the number and quality of undergraduate laboratory offerings in cell biology and provide the students with more modern quantitative experiments, the Department of Biology at SUNY Binghamton is introducing the powerful technology of flow cytometry into the curriculum. Flow cytometry, used extensively in diverse areas of research to analyze fluorescent stained subpopulations of cells, is now sufficiently automated to be suitable for use in undergraduate laboratory courses. This provides opportunities for student-derived independent research projects. The goals of the project are to introduce quantitative flow cytometry experiments into the cell biology laboratory, to develop a mini-course focusing on flow cytometry principles, and to increase undergraduate student participation in research. Approximately 65 students a year are exposed to the technique of flow cytometry, both in cell biology and in the new mini-course. Project evaluation is both formative and summative and involves both students and faculty.

生物科学（61）为了提高细胞生物学本科实验室产品的数量和质量，并为学生提供了更现代的定量实验，SUNY BINGHAMTON的生物学系正在将流式细胞术的强大技术引入课程中。 流式细胞术在不同的研究领域广泛用于分析细胞的荧光染色亚群，现在已经足够自动化，适合在本科实验室课程中使用。 这为学生衍生的独立研究项目提供了机会。 该项目的目标是将定量流式细胞仪实验引入细胞生物学实验室，以开发针对流式细胞仪原理的小型课程，并增加本科生参与研究。 在细胞生物学和新的迷你课程中，每年大约有65名学生接触流式细胞仪的技术。 项目评估既是形成性的又是总结性的，并且涉及学生和教职员工。
