Dear Colleagues and Friends,
It is a special privilege and pleasure to welcome you all, on behalf of the Scientific Committee, at the 10th Congress of the Croatian Society for Medical Biochemistry and Laboratory Medicine with international participation.
Through the Scientific program of the four days of the Congress, we tried to provide topics that we consider will be attractive to all the participants. Although the emphasis of this Congress is on new technologies, we tried to expand the topics selection as much as possible in order to be suitable for all our colleagues. The lectures will also cover recent scientific and professional achievements and novelties, as well as focus on exchanging experiences in various fields of laboratory medicine. The Scientific program offers an opportunity to interact and connect with renowned experts in various fields of laboratory medicine who will present current topics in the form of plenary lectures, symposia and interactive sections with the aim of acquiring new knowledge and providing insights for their application into everyday practice. I believe you will be satisfied with the choice of topics and invited lecturers.
For the first time, as part of the Congress, a Pre-Congress Symposium of the Young is being organized, the aim of which is to bring together young professionals who have achieved significant accomplishments in their work. We invite everyone, especially young colleagues, to join it, in order to get encouragement for new insights through inspirational lectures.
For the whole duration of the Congress, you will have the opportunity to benefit from our IVD partners, who have generously supported this conference. They will present the latest developments in the diagnostic laboratory technology through industrial workshops and exhibition spaces.
I hereby encourage you all to be active participants in the Congress and present the results of your research in the poster section.
I hope you will enjoy the Scientific program and have the opportunity to exchange experiences and ideas as well as establish future collaborations.
I wish you all a warm welcome and a successful Congress!

Dear Colleagues, dear Friends!
It is with great pleasure that I invite you all, on behalf of the Organizing Committee, to the 10th Congress of the Croatian Society for Medical Biochemistry and Laboratory Medicine (CSMBLM) with international participation.
The region of Slavonia and Baranja is the host of the largest and the most important scientific and professional event in the field of laboratory medicine to be held this autumn in Zagreb. The aim of the Congress is to present our profession through a multidisciplinary program covering all areas of laboratory medicine. Through a close cooperation with the Scientific Committee, we have prepared an elaborate Scientific program with lectures by eminent foreign and domestic experts, as well as numerous educational workshops provided by our IVD partners. In addition, a large exhibition area will be available throughout the whole duration of the Congress, where Congress participants will have the opportunity to find out the latest technological achievements in laboratory industry. I am especially delighted with the fact that, for the first time, our young colleagues will have the opportunity to present their work at the Pre-Congress Symposium of the Young. I am sure that the interest will be great and that it will be a great opportunity for them to learn something new.
I look forward to the occasion of socializing together at events that, I believe after two challenging years, will be precious to all of us. We have prepared an exceptional honorary lecture that will be held at the Congress’s opening ceremony and a splendid Congress dinner where we will have the opportunity to exchange ideas and experiences in a more relaxed atmosphere.
I wish you all a warm welcome at the 10th Congress of CSMBLM!

Dear Colleagues,
Dear Friends,
It is my great pleasure, following the last year's postponement, to invite all of you to join us at the 10th Congress of the Croatian Society for Medical Biochemistry and Laboratory Medicine.
Continuously, the Congress aims to bring together laboratory specialists, scientists, and industry colleagues in the field of medical biochemistry and laboratory medicine and to provide opportunities for acquiring new knowledge and information exchange. The 10th Congress will continue to pay attention to our long-established topics in order to present in one place the latest technological advancements, to share knowledge and experiences, and to learn something new.
This is an opportunity to listen to lectures by experts and specialists in medical biochemistry and laboratory medicine as well as some of our dear friends from abroad who will also present the latest scientific and technological achievements with the help of our partners, industry colleagues. I am convinced that this Congress will be a valuable source of new insights and that you will gain knowledge which will improve your everyday laboratory practice, but also encourage you to engage into scientific research.
Looking forward to seeing many of you in Zagreb!
Yours sincerely,
Prof. Daria Pašalić
