The Scientists Who Saved the World: The Fight Against COVID-19

Burnout. Advocacy. Health Disparities. Preparation. The COVID-19 pandemic imposed unprecedented pressure on the laboratory. Pathologists and medical laboratory professionals stepped up to the challenge and were a knowledge source for patients and colleagues while simultaneously battling supply shortages and risking their own health to ensure patients get the testing and care they need.

ASCP is proud to bring you the docuseries, “The Scientists Who Saved the World: The Fight Against COVID-19,” an inside look at how the laboratories survived the first year of COVID-19, and how they are preparing for challenges ahead.
