And Why You Should Visit Booth #2321
This year’s ADLM Scientific Meeting and Clinical Lab Expo is taking place from July 27–31 at Chicago’s McCormick Place Convention Center. The Expo floor opens July 29 and runs through July 31, giving laboratory professionals the chance to explore new products, talk directly with experts, and gain insights that are hard to find anywhere else. You guessed it; WSLH PT will be there. We hope you will not only stop by our booth but truly take advantage of what ADLM’s Clinical Lab Expo has to offer.
Here’s a quick snapshot of the schedule, and what you can expect at this year’s Expo:

Expo hours:
- Tuesday, July 29 and Wednesday, July 30: 9:30 a.m. – 5 p.m. U.S. Central Time
- Thursday, July 31, 9:30 a.m. – 12:00 p.m. U.S. Central Time
Expo highlights:
- 800+ exhibitors across more than 200 product and service categories
- Live Lecture Series presentations and Industry Workshops held right in the Expo Hall
- Interactive Product Showcase displays and demo opportunities
- Networking events, including a fun Ice Cream Social and daily coffee breaks
But beyond the number of booths and presentations, there’s something uniquely valuable about this kind of in-person experience—especially for lab managers and decision-makers.
Walking the show floor, you can ask detailed questions about specific instruments, testing platforms, or External Quality Assessment (EQA) or Proficiency Testing (PT) programs. You will get answers from people who understand both the science and the day-to-day operational challenges of a clinical lab. For many, the opportunity to gather firsthand information in one place helps streamline the decision-making process—especially when preparing for the next PT enrollment year or evaluating alternative service providers.
If proficiency testing is part of your responsibilities, it’s worth planning a visit to our Booth #2321. WSLH Proficiency Testing’s technical experts will be there to talk through your questions about PT and EQA programs—whether you’re reviewing your options for 2026, considering a secondary provider, or simply want a better understanding of our programs and services. We hope you’d just stop by and say hello, even if you didn’t have a specific PT question in mind.
Even if you’re not attending the full conference, you can still explore the Expo with a complimentary Expo-only pass.
