Quality control in infectious disease testing
This talk, organised by the London Region Virology Discussion Group, will highlight the change in thinking that is long overdue in understanding quality control in infectious diseases testing, where the use of traditional methods for monitoring QC data are entrenched and are still advocated by many international guidelines, including UK National Standard Methods, even though these traditional methods are not suitable.

A CPD Presentation by Joe Vincini BAppSci MSc, NRL Australia
Joe Vincini is the quality control program team leader at NRL, a non-profit scientific organisation based in Melbourne Australia, specialising in the maintenance and enhancement of quality of testing for infectious diseases, globally.
His talk will highlight the change in thinking that is long overdue in understanding quality control in infectious diseases testing, where the use of traditional methods for monitoring QC data are entrenched and are still advocated by many international guidelines, including UK National Standard Methods, even though these traditional methods are not suitable.
Their use causes frustration, misunderstanding and often are either recalculated to fit with expectation, or are completely ignored altogether. Perhaps it's time for an alternative approach?
