Clinical Diagnostics & Research Virtual Event Series 2023

Labroots is excited to announce the 14th Annual Event in the 2023 Clinical Diagnostics & Research Virtual Event Series taking place on November 8th, 2023! This event will again bring together clinicians, researchers, medical experts and professionals as Labroots aims to elevate the level of collaboration and in turn, advance clinical diagnostics, research and medicine.

In this event thousands will join in a discussion of the continuous progress made with advances in laboratory testing and patient care and treatment. With new technologies and treatments available, updates in regulatory processes are also necessary to ensure patient safety and proper practices.

This year's event includes the following tracks:
  • Emerging Diagnostic Technologies
  • Precision Medicine and Special Population
  • The Lab's Role in Advancing Equity
  • Regulatory Compliance for Clinical Diagnostics

Call for Posters — Virtual poster sessions offer the opportunity to present data to a global audience via a PDF poster and video summary, and discuss results with interested colleagues through email. Plan now to have your poster included in the 2023 Clinical Diagnostics Virtual Event. Submission is free. Submit your abstract here.

Our virtual conference allows you to participate in a global setting with no travel or cost to you. The event will remain open for 2 years from the date of the live event, and the webinars will be available for unlimited on-demand viewing. This virtual conference also offers increased reach for the global clinical diagnostics and research community with a high degree of interaction through live-streaming video and chat sessions.
