Join EMEA’s Leading diagnostic assay development community
All 2025 workshops are now sold out, but you can register your interest for 2026!
Our Lateral-flow workshop series 2025 brought together diagnostic assay developers from across Europe for hands-on learning, expert-led seminars, and peer networking. Each workshop delivered unique insights into transforming ideas into high-performance rapid diagnostic tests.
2025 Workshop highlights:
Zaragoza, Spain |12-14 May, 2025
Our first LFA workshop kicked off in Zaragoza, where participants explored the fundamentals of lateral-flow assay development and prototyping.
Dassel, Germany | 2-4 June, 2025
The advanced workshop in Dassel offered deeper technical training and hands-on experience for seasoned developers looking to optimize assay performance.
Amsterdam, Netherlands | 20-22 October, 2025
The final workshop in Amsterdam is now sold out and will conclude the series with advanced troubleshooting, expert insights into lateral-flow assay technology, and a collaborative exchange of best practices.
