Introduction and Welcome

Welcome to the launch of LabLog, the blog for the Association of Public Health Laboratories (APHL), a membership organization of federal, state and local government laboratories that provide testing of public health significance. LabLog will feature posts by APHL staff and members, as well as outside experts. We hope that LabLog will be a valuable source of information on laboratory science and policy, and provide a forum for lively discussions. We strongly encourage questions and comments.
