Interviews

We were fortunate enough to get R. Neill Carey, PhD, the chair of the CLSI EP 15 committee, to present and explain that new standard. He also contributed a chapter to the new Basic Method Validation manual. But for those who have never heard of EP 15 before, we conducted a short interview with Dr. Carey. This short introduction to EP 15 may pique your interest in this new guideline.

Hope Greig had a poster at the 2005 AACC/ASCLS/etc conference in Orlando, “Using Lean Thinking in staffing a new clinical laboratory.” After reading her poster, we followed up with an interview. Her experience provides a bench-level view of Lean and can offer some very practical observations about what to expect.

An interview with CAP about their proficiency testing practices.

An interview with Dr. Jan Krouwer, PhD, an expert on Risk Management, FMEA, and many other topics.
