Host response testing for acute infections: Clinical and laboratory considerations

Monday, December 7 at 16:00 GMT | 17:00 CET | 11:00 EST | 08:00 PST

Danaher SelectScience Webinar on Host response testing for acute infections

In this accredited webinar, clinical and laboratory experts will explore the scientific principles, current evidence, and practical considerations surrounding host-response testing for acute infection. Through both clinical and laboratory perspectives, attendees will gain insight into how host-response biomarkers may support diagnostic confidence, antimicrobial stewardship, and patient management, while also examining the operational and stewardship considerations required for successful implementation in emergency medicine and clinical microbiology settings.

Subject matter expert speakers:

  • Dr. Edana Mann, MD, Assistant Professor of Emergency Medicine & Senior Associate Clinical Director, Johns Hopkins Hospital, Department of Emergency Medicine
  • Dr. Melissa Naiman, Ph.D. Senior Director, Medical & Scientific Affairs - Acute Care, Beckman Coulter Diagnostics

Clinical MicrobiologyMicrobiology is the study of microorganisms including protists, prokaryotes, fungi, and, often, viruses. Microorganisms are a useful research tool as genetic vectors and, in immunology, for antibiotic susceptibility testing, cellular biology and genetics. Microorganisms commonly grow readily in incubators with microbial culture media; this can contain chromogenic supplements to differentiate between cell lines. Estimate your culture’s density of microorganisms with colony counters, or screen and select colonies for desirable clones with automated colony pickers. Additionally, equipment is available to monitor environments for the presence of microbes and identify with microbial identification instruments.
