The American Society for Clinical Laboratory Science – Missouri (ASCLS-MO) will present the Get Your CEU Kicks on Route 66 Laboratory Learning Conference, taking place in Springfield, MO, on April 20-21, 2023.
ASCLS-MO is proud to bring this two-day conference to the Ozarks Technical Community College Springfield Campus for its biennial event and annual membership meeting. The current president of ASCLS-MO, Candice Barker, has said that “this conference is the most important annual state-wide event for laboratory professionals and managers to take part in.”
The conference will feature two days of interactive learning that cover a diverse set of topics, including sepsis detection, transgender lab values, regional options for furthering education, bioethics, establishing a professional online presence, and much more.
