Academy Day

Siemens Healthineers Academy Day 

Thursday 8 Juin 2023

During the Siemens Healthineers Academy Day we bring together scientific topics, fascinating speakers and players from the laboratory industry. Experts from different fields will share their knowledge and insights with you, based on new studies, new regulations and their own experience.

The program of the 8th edition of the Siemens Healthineers Academy Day is built around the theme “New Guidelines & Regulations in the Clinical Biology”.

During the last year, a lot of new directives and regulations were published and discussions are ongoing about changes in reimbursement. During this edition we will give insights on how these directives and regulations will impact the Belgian laboratories and Clinical Biology in general.
