Shoutout to our BLD alumni who recently took the stage at the South Central Association of Clinical Microbiologists (SCACM) 2026 Fall Meeting! Adam Czubachowski, MPH, MLS(ASCP)cm; Nick Decker, MBA, MLS(ASCP); and Julius Kuya, MLS(ASCP)cm shared their expertise on topics ranging from arboviruses and bioterrorism agents to sepsis and advanced laboratory technology.

Dr. Rachel Morris represented BLD at the meeting and had the chance to reconnect with our alumni speakers and a few BLD students completing their clinical rotations who stopped by. It was great to see BLD students, alumni and faculty together at this year’s meeting!

Here’s a look inside BLD 314L! Students are getting hands-on experience in the hematology lab as they practice preparing blood smears and performing hemoglobin and hematocrit testing. These hands-on labs help students build the skills and techniques they’ll use in the clinical laboratory.
