The Danish Society for Flow Cytometry (DSFCM) was established in 1988 to unite Danish researchers and clinicians working within the field of flow cytometry. Initially, the focus of the society was to standardize flow cytometry practices among clinicians. Over time the focus has shifted and is currently emphasizing research aspects and new applications of flow cytometry. DSFCM organizes two annual meetings with varying flow cytometry related themes and relevant national or international invited speakers. The purpose is to connect the Danish researchers who are particularly interested in flow cytometry, to facilitate the communication and stimulate the research amongst members. We always prioritize time for networking and time to talk to company members as part of the meeting program. Attendance at our biannual meetings is free, but we often combine the meetings with social events for society members only. About every 3 years, DSFCM is part of a joint Nordic meeting with the Norwegian and Swedish flow cytometry societies.
