The melding of the roles of once disparate laboratory specialists into Clinical Laboratory Scientists is reflected in the topics to be addressed over the next 2 days. As we build on the twin strengths of our profession, science and technology, we see the artificial walls that once separated laboratory areas crumble. They crumble to the benefit of healthcare and as a paean to the advances in scientific discoveries of the last 20 years". As condition of the gift from the Arnold and Mabel . . .
