September Training Highlights: Dana Farber & Clinical Risk Assessment

Laboratory professionals gathered at Dana Farber Cancer Institute in Boston for an intensive training session on advanced cancer diagnostics. The month also featured a crucial workshop on Clinical Microbiology Risk Assessment, led by State Laboratory expert Mary DeMartino. She walked teams through essential strategies for spotting potential hazards and setting up proper safety measures in their microbiology labs. Both events gave lab staff practical tools they could put to use right away. Participants left with updated protocols and fresh approaches to strengthen their laboratory operations. The hands-on format of these sessions made it easy for attendees to see how these improvements would work in their own facilities.
