Hygienic Laboratory publishes annual report
This report features a comprehensive overview of laboratory activities and achievements, a financial report and testing volumes by area of specialty and by county.
In his opening letter, Hygienic Laboratory Director Christopher Atchison notes that since the late 1990s, “we have experienced the unexpected episodes of terrorism, the all-too-frequent occurrences of natural disasters and the emergence of other resurgent or novel diseases. In response, we have also seen the upgrading of our public health facilities, the discovery of new technologies, and the development and implementation of new strategies to best address the changing reality.
“The role of science and of its laboratories has been critical to achievement,” Atchison said. “This annual report will capture some of those accomplishments and point to promising future developments.”
