Based on the survey conducted in 721 participants over 104 countries, #IFCCWebinar fall series 2020 was huge success and extremely helpful to participants. This survey inspires us to continue to work on our eLearning platform to benefit lab professionals and clinical laboratory service. #IFCCeNews https://www.ifcc.org/media/478852/ifccenewsmarch2021.pdf#pdf=15

We lost a true friend, an expert on drug interferences and on art. Professor Nils Tryding will be deeply missed and we will remember him with a warm smile on our lips. #RIP
