About FICCS Wiki
Flow Informatics and Computational Cytometry Society (FICCS) connects people sharing interest in new software tools, methods, and standards for flow cytometry. Members of the society represent a cross-disciplinary international collaborative group of bioinformaticists, computational statisticians, software and hardware developers, and clinician scientists, from both academia and industry. FICCS is open to community participation; membership is free of charge to anyone who is interested in contributing to our efforts.
You are kindly invited to visit us at http://www.ficcs.org, to join us at our mailing list, and/or to email us at info@ficcs.org to request more information.
This Wiki page has been created to facilitate FICCS development activities. For those not quite familiar with wikis, they are web pages that you can easily edit and comment on using your web browser. They can serve as useful tools for wide collaborative development.
