“Laboratory Medicine in Africa: Combatting Global Health Threats Together”
ASLM2016 is the third biennial international conference of the African Society for Laboratory Medicine (ASLM) and aims to serve as a platform for the international laboratory medicine community to share best practices, acquire knowledge and debate innovative approaches for combatting global health threats.
Specifically, ASLM2016 will:
- Provide information on the laboratory medicine landscape and needs in Africa
- Increase awareness of opportunities to invest in laboratory medicine amongst private, public and philanthropic donors
- Facilitate networking among participants, particularly for newcomers to African healthcare settings and markets
- Promote the creation of public-private partnerships to ensure further development of both African laboratories and African diagnostics companies
ASLM2016 is scheduled to be held at the Cape Town International Convention Centre, in Cape Town, South Africa, from 3-8 December 2016.
ASLM is an independent, pan-African professional body that coordinates, galvanises and mobilises relevant stakeholders – local, national and international to improve local access to world-class laboratory services and ensure healthy African communities now and for the long-term.
