+       "This package implements an algorithm which increases the number of
+simultaneously measurable markers and in this way helps with study of the
+immune responses.  Thus, the present algorithm, named @code{CytoBackBone},
+allows combining phenotypic information of cells from different cytometric
+profiles obtained from different cytometry panels.  This computational
+approach is based on the principle that each cell has its own phenotypic and
+functional characteristics that can be used as an identification card.
+@code{CytoBackBone} uses a set of predefined markers, that we call the
+backbone, to define this identification card.  The phenotypic information of
+cells with similar identification cards in the different cytometric profiles
+is then merged.")
