Invitation to Participate in a Survey - Reinvention in Laboratory Medicine: Perspectives from the Laboratory Workforce

  • 1.  Invitation to Participate in a Survey - Reinvention in Laboratory Medicine: Perspectives from the Laboratory Workforce

    Posted yesterday
    Dear colleagues, we warmly invite you to take part in this short, anonymous survey, jointly initiated by the European Federation of Clinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine Division of Communication (EFLM DC), with the active involvement and support of the EFLM Committee for Young Scientists (C‑YS).
    Laboratory medicine is evolving, along with the roles, expectations, and career paths of those who shape it. This survey invites you to reflect on career perspectives beyond traditional laboratory medicine roles, the barriers and challenges to professional growth, and the importance of personal values, standards, and an internal "compass" in guiding career decisions.
    Your voice matters. The insights gathered through this initiative aim to inspire dialogue and contribute to future EFLM communications and scientific publications. Participation is voluntary, and all responses will be collected and analyzed in an anonymous and aggregated manner.
    Here is the link to the survey: https://survey.eflm.eu/index.php/784828?lang=en
    The survey will close on May  31st at midnight.
    Thank you for taking the time to share your perspective and be part of this collective reflection on the future of our profession.
    Survey authors: Ana-Maria Šimundić (Croatia), Waleed Altamimi (Saudi Arabia), Michael Cornes (UK), Victoria Higgins (Canada), Snezana Jovičić (Serbia), Tara Rolić (Croatia), Joe Wiencek (USA).
