🚨 Big news: The U.S. District Court has ruled in our favor, thwarting the FDA’s attempt to impose excessive regulations on laboratory-developed testing procedures (LDTs). This is a win for labs, patients and innovation! Read our press release: www.eurekalert.org/news-release...

Almost a month after joining the site, we have over 90 clinical microbiologists in the "Clinical Microbiology" starter pack! While not quite the atmospheric rise of the #IDSky group, we'll keep recruiting! Please share and let your #clinmicro colleagues know how to find us when they arrive!

Dear #IDSky, Do you have a really cool case that you'd like to publish? One that involved a unique or challenging diagnostic approach? If so, I would encourage you to submit your case to the BRAND NEW ASM Case Reports journal. Read more here: doi.org/10.1128/asmc... journals.asm.org/journal/asmcr

A vendor came to visit our lab recently to push a new product. The rep mentioned that it capitalized on the new "trend" of people caring about diagnostic stewardship, followed by an eye roll. Clearly they don't do any research before these meetings 🤣 For those interested: doi.org/10.1128/jcm....
