Medical Laboratory Professionals Week 2025
20-26 April 2025
It's time to honor the important role laboratory professionals like you play in the lives of patients around the world.
Laboratory professionals encompass a wide variety of specialists, including clinical chemists, molecular biologists, and the microbiologists whose work supports the fight against antimicrobial resistance (AMR).
During this Medical Laboratory Professionals Week, we want to show our appreciation for you, the subject matter experts and members who help us make the world a healthier place. Your contributions of time and resources are invaluable and help us fulfill our mission to “develop clinical and laboratory practices and promote their use worldwide."
