Colleagues: (there are several important topics here)

If you can remember ISAC2006.com, you will always know 
where to find the latest information on the next ISAC 
International Congress. As I reported in the recent ISAC e-
news, we have just initiated this site to keep you totally 
updated in all aspects of what is going to happen at the 
congress. I am particularly excited about the next congress 
since it is my responsibility as president-elect of ISAC to 
program that meeting. I will provide more details in January  
or February. So, you all have an opportunity to bombard me 
personally with ideas! May the best ideas win!

While there is not much in the congress website right now, 
please put this into your hot-link list. Visit it frequently to see 
what is happening for your next congress.  It seems that 
while all of you have some interest in cytometry, about half 
of the members of this list are not members of ISAC 
(International Society for Analytical Cytology). Perhaps you 
should consider joining. Of the 840 people who took our 
"Future of Cytometry" survey, less than half were ISAC 
members!! You can find a link that will explain the benefits 
of membership at 
http://www.cyto.purdue.edu/isac. By the way, one of my 
"jobs" over the holiday break is to publish the results of that 
survey on our website.

Joining ISAC means that you will begin a partnership with 
many other individuals who can assit you in your interests in 
cytometry. You will also receive a subscription to our 
Society journal Cytometry. Please consider publishing your 
next paper in Cytometry. 

The ISAC Congresses bring together members from around 
the world. It is a whirlwind of science and technology. It is 
an opportunity to meet a potential advisor, post-doc 
position, or future employer. ISAC meetings are very much 
opportunities for networking and seeing new technologies. 

For those who are already members, can I gently remind 
you that you should  renew your membership. The 
membership of the society is steadily growing and this is 
very exciting indeed.  

In a week or two, I will publish my annual "state of the 
cytometry web" email. Look for a few surprises!

Best wishes
J. Paul Robinson
