Sustainability has not only been a central value to Ortho throughout our history, but it is rapidly becoming a defining issue of the age. In the coming years, its impact will be increasingly felt in healthcare. From the implications of legislation to the growing number of environmentally-conscious investors, this is a topic which is set to shape the future direction of hospitals, labs and blood banks.  We are therefore delighted to welcome Professor Damien Gruson and Dr. Alistair Gammie, members of the Division on Emerging Technologies of IFCC, to deliver this Ortho Clinical Diagnostics Masterclass webinar. Their analysis of this fascinating and critical subject will cover regulations, clinical considerations, action plans, change management, and the economics of laboratory sustainability.

Founded by daughter mother duo, Lucy and Claire, &SISTERS is developing the menstrual health ecosystem of the future. They recognised that a person menstruating uses 11,000 period products in their lifetime on average – and most are completely unaware that the products they reach for in the period care aisle are laden with chemicals and plastic. So, they set out…
