Thinking about your future in laboratory science but not sure where it leads? COLA sat down with students from Salisbury University to discuss options for careers in laboratory science and advice on transitioning from a student to a laboratory science professional. This field opens more doors than people expect, and the ones who thrive are the ones who stay curious and keep showing up. A sincere thank you to our panelists for giving their time and sharing so openly. And to everyone who came, your engagement made the room.

Today, we're highlighting a featured article from our Spring issue of InSights entitled A New Book Alert: The ABCs of Laboratory Medicine. COLA’s technical writer Jennifer MacCormack was able to talk with the authors Melody Nelson, DCLS, CC(NRCC), MS, MLS(ASCP) and Stephanie Whitehead, MBA, MPH, MLS(ASCP) whose repeated encounters at conferences grew into a strong partnership and ultimately inspired a bold vision for the future of the field.
