ADLM in the News

2022

In July 2023, we changed our name from AACC (short for the American Association for Clinical Chemistry) to the Association for Diagnostics & Laboratory Medicine (ADLM). The following page was written prior to this rebranding and contains mentions of the association’s old name.

Here is a sampling of 2022 media coverage of AACC, its journals Clinical Chemistry and The Journal of Applied Laboratory Medicine, and its former patient health site, www.labtestsonline.org. (Lab Tests Online is no longer an AACC program.)
