Dear Colleagues,
After the meetings in Parma (2011), Zagreb (2013), Porto (2015) and Amsterdam (2017), with great pleasure, on behalf of the conference organizers, we wish to invite you to the 5th EFLM Conference on Preanalytical Phase, sponsored by BD, to be held on 22-23 March 2019 in Zagreb (Croatia).
The conference is organized by the European Federation of Clinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine (EFLM) and sponsored by BD Life Sciences, Preanalytical Systems. The focus of the conference is the quality of the preanalytical phase of the laboratory work. It is the largest such conference in Europe, which brings together more than 600 participants every second year.
The conference programme has been tailored by the scientific committee to deliver up-to-date knowledge in the field and create an open forum for interactive discussions. Your feedback during the previous meetings has guided us in the selection of the topics of this one.
Our guiding principle was to be different, pragmatic, practical and interactive, to address some most common preanalytical challenges, to raise questions and offer answers and solutions.
We offer you an excellent programme, renowned speakers, lots of practical tools and tips. Come to Zagreb and learn from the best!
Please save the date and mark your calendars for this interesting scientific conference in the beautiful city of Zagreb. We are looking forward to your attendance! At the end of the day, it is you who will make this conference a great success.
Kind regards,
Ana-Maria Simundic
Conference Scientific and Organizing Committee, Chair
