Following the Scotland and Northern England Flow Cytometry mee$ng 2012 in Moredun, we considered the establishment of a new cytometry group in Scotland, that brings scien$sts in the field of Cytomics together from the northern regions. Why Cytomics? Actually the theme of our first SSC mee$ng already provides the answer —Translaonal Cytometry from Bench to Bedside— relates to the future of this society and it reflects our shared passion for cellular systems. Cytometry is growing as a diagnos$c and monitoring technology in the research and clinical laboratory and that it will be useful to establish a forum to exchange informaon, to present research data and to explore new applicaons of the rapidly expanding technologies of image and flow cytometry. To beaer understand and further explore the cellular systems, the merging and bundling of technologies is necessary. Single technology can’t provide the ul$mate solu$on! Therefore CYTOMICS, which analyzes the func$onal relaonship between cell systems and networks using the “omics” technologies (e.g. Genomics, Proteomics), will give a comprehensive view of a disease. The analysis of already exis$ng data from scien$fic studies or rou$ne diagnos$c procedures makes cytomics a valuable tool for studying diseases, that will be of immediate value in translaonal medicine. The Scosh Society of Cytomics was formed with the inten$on of providing informaon related to the art of cytometry (flow and imaging) including its cross technology applicaons to genomics, proteomics, in vivo imaging and other core related areas between the research organizaons in Scotland and Northern England. We believe that SSC will be the ideal forum for users of cytometry & omics systems to get together, share exper$se and innovaon, discuss pilalls, successes and ideas for the future of translaonal cytomics. Simply fostering the strong network of this scien$fic community! 1st Annual meeting of SSC 2014 It is a great privilege for me to announce this exci$ng line up of talks, exhibi$ons and workshop. SSC 2014 brings together top scien$sts from various disciplines, and internaonal renowned keynote speakers. On behalf of the organizing commiaee, I would like to express my sincere gratude to our excep$onal speakers for taking the $me to aend and support our first SSC mee$ng. Further to our talks we will have poster session during the coffee and lunch break. This poster presentaon will results in poster awards, from generous sponsors, to recognize the excellent research done by scien$sts. Therefore, we encourage you to visit the stands of the commercial exhibi$on as without their support this mee$ng wouldn’t be such a success. Please take this this opportunity to acknowledge the sponsors for their support and helping us. Our special thanks goes to Becton Dickinson, Sony, BioStatus and Miltenyi Biotec for their extra donaons and contribu$ons. This mee$ng is not the outcome of one person; it’s the result of a team. I would like to express my gratude to the fantas$c organizing commiaee and members, namely Lynne Lumsden, Janice Forsyth, Ian Dimmick, Mara Rochi, and David Wilson. My big huge thank you to Linda Duncan, who has done the majority of the administrave and exhibi$on organizaon, nothing would be possible without her. Finally we THANK YOU for par$cipang in this first Scosh Society of Cytomics mee$ng. We hope that this conference will bring about rich and rewarding experiences for all of us in science, and help develop friendships. Let us greet old friends and make new ones! Once again, I welcome you to Aberdeen, and have a good $me at SSC 2014.
