With great pleasure we invite you to join us at the 2022 Continuing Education Meeting for Medical Laboratory Immunology in Switzerland organized by the Commission on Laboratory Diagnostics (CLD) of the Swiss Society for Allergology and Clinical Immunology (SSAI), which takes place on Friday 18th November 2022 in Aarau.

As always, this event is primarily organized for Laboratory Medicine Immunology Specialists with FAMH titles and title candidates but is also open for others interested and active in medical laboratory immunology. The meeting has a scientific and open character and aims to increase the quality of medical laboratory immunology in Switzerland.

The program covers topics that challenge us in our daily diagnostic work. Speakers will present and discuss new techniques for the identification of monoclonal gammopathies and practical issues related to its reporting. In addition, we will have a clinical and technical overview of the role of PLA2R antibodies in the diagnosis and monitoring of membranous nephropathy. Last but not least, we will gain a deeper insight into recent data on the clinical performance of RA and CTD biomarkers and the usefulness of likelihood ratios in the diagnosis of RA and other autoimmune diseases.
