How will AI, automation and greater use of data in diagnostics change the work of laboratory professionals? At Labquality Days 2027, Professor Janne Cadamuro will look ahead to the next decade and discuss how laboratories and their teams can prepare.
Cadamuro is a laboratory physician and Head of the Department of Laboratory Medicine at University Hospital Salzburg and Paracelsus Medical University in Austria. His research focuses on the stages of laboratory testing outside the analysis itself and on how laboratory testing fits into the wider diagnostic process. He chaired the European Federation of Clinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine’s Working Group on the Preanalytical Phase from 2021 to 2025.
In his lecture, Cadamuro will explore how tools such as algorithm-based decision support and closer links with clinical informatics could change laboratory workflows. He’ll also consider what those changes mean for the people working in laboratories, including which skills they may need to develop and how they could take a greater role in advising clinical teams.
