Current Challenges, Needs, and Solutions for Molecular Diagnostics Labs
The Bio-IT World Conference & Expo in Boston is a fantastic opportunity to learn about the latest research and how it can be brought into clinical practice to improve people’s everyday lives. Every time I attend this conference, I’m excited by the potential for applying scientific discoveries at scale.
This year, the conference was the first many of us have been able to attend in person since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. I was not the only one who really enjoyed the chance to meet face to face again. The virtual tools work well, but meeting in person really does allow a deeper level of communication in conversations.
