International Congress of Paediatric Laboratory Medicine
The International Congress of Paediatric Laboratory Medicine (ICPLM) is the triennial meeting of the Task Force on Paediatric Laboratory Medicine (TF-PLM) of the International Federation of Clinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine (IFCC). The focus of the congresses are the latest scientific and technological achievements in all areas of paediatric clinical and diagnostic laboratory medicine. The meeting now takes place immediately before the IFCC World Lab. The congress offers you the unique opportunity to gather the latest information in laboratory medicine for children as well as for adult patients.
