Join our SARS CoV-2 serology testing webinars24. November and 1. December 2020
Antibody tests play an important role throughout the patient care and are critical in determining the full scope of the disease, combating the pandemic, and rebuilding public confidence.
In November and December we host a Nordic and Baltic 2-part webinar with Dr. Katherine Soreng, one of our experts in antibody testing. Save the dates and register already now.
