CHICAGO, Aug. 1, 2024 ~ The Association for Diagnostics & Laboratory Medicine (ADLM) welcomed a record-breaking number of laboratory experts to their annual meeting, ADLM 2024, from July 28 to August 1. Formerly known as the AACC Annual Scientific Meeting & Clinical Lab Expo, this year's event showcased groundbreaking advancements in diagnostic research and technology, highlighting the crucial role that laboratory medicine plays in patient care.
According to ADLM, as of Thursday, August 1, over 18,000 laboratory medicine professionals had registered for the meeting. This marks a significant increase of 6% in attendance since the last time the ADLM Annual Meeting was held in Chicago in 2022. With one more day left in the meeting, even more attendees are expected to join.
One of the highlights of the event was a special session featuring representatives from ADLM, the American Medical Association, and the Children's Hospital Association. They discussed how the FDA's final rule placing laboratory developed tests under FDA oversight will have a negative impact on patient care. The session also included a caregiver and patient advocate who shared their perspective on why these tests are essential for timely diagnoses and treatment.

On Monday, Dr. Kojo S.J. Elenitoba-Johnson from Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center discussed how proteomic data can help healthcare professionals better understand lymphomas and develop precision oncology therapies.
Tuesday's plenary speaker was Dr. Ron H.N. van Schaik from Erasmus MC - University Medical Center Rotterdam who talked about implementing pharmacogenetics as a diagnostic tool in routine healthcare. He shared both the successes and challenges of this approach.
On Wednesday, Dr. Sharon Hillier from the University of Pittsburgh explored the development of new products for HIV prevention, including those that can be used on demand and minimize exposure to antiretroviral drugs.
The closing keynote speaker, Dr. Diana Greene Foster from the University of California, San Francisco, discussed the mental health, physical health, and socioeconomic consequences faced by individuals who are unable to get an abortion.
