Medical Laboratory Professionals Week originated in 1975 as a national event in order to raise public awareness, understanding and appreciation of the impact that laboratories play in a patient’s diagnosis and care. The week also strives to help the public understand the quality and professional accountability that clinical laboratories have relating to the patient. Laboratorians play a vital role as a member of the health care team. This is also a moment for laboratory staff to be recognized for their contributions to patient care while having fun with their coworkers. Please check out all the UM Pathology lab activities using the buttons below.
