we featured the news release Hot topics at first ICR/EMWA symposium from
ICR (Institute of Clinical Research): "The Institute of Clinical Research (ICR) has announced a collaboration with the European Medical Writers Association (EMWA) and is holding its first joint symposium in February 2008".
In November 2007, we covered the news from Bio-Rad Laboratories
concerning its Bulletin 5534A
- take a look at MiniArrayer tested for clinical research: results
which says: "Bio-Rad Laboratories's technical bulletin 5534A describes results of the testing of the BioOdyssey Calligrapher MiniArrayer, which is used for the printing of protein microarrays".
Take a look also at the news release from Affinity Recruitment Solutions, Specialist recruiter targets oncology researchers,
