The Congress is organized in cooperation with the Korean Society of Clinical Chemistry.
The Congress will focus on the Emerging Technologies in all areas of paediatric clinical and diagnostic laboratory medicine and we are certain that all participants will be enthused by the program. Taking place immediately before the IFCC World Lab Seoul 2020, the congress offers you the unique opportunity to gather the latest information in laboratory medicine with a special focus on children. The scientific program will cover a wide range of topics and includes sessions on neonates and newborn screening, endocrinology (including bone metabolism), clinical cases, data mining approaches to clinical values, emerging technologies in pediatrics and application of NGS in paediatrics, hematology, POCT and Pediatric Laboratory Medicine, and many other topics. We would also like to encourage you to submit your latest scientific
research results to be presented in scientific oral and poster sessions.
The program offer the opportunity to interact and network with a wide variety
of professionals including laboratory physicians, scientists and technologists, as well as practicing clinicians in paediatrics, neonatology, infectious disease and family medicine.

Please save these dates in your calendar – we look forward to hosting you in Seoul in May 2020.
