Dr Gary Moore's upcoming presentations down under

Dr Gary Moore, Consultant Biomedical Scientist for the Diagnostic Haemostasis & Thrombosis Laboratories at St. Thomas' Hospital, is flying the GSTS flag at the Australian ECAT Participant's Meeting in Gold Coast, Australia on Friday 18th October.

Gary is giving two presentations, one on commonalities and contrasts between guidelines from three different expert bodies on lupus anticoagulant detection, and the other on complex result interpretation.

He is well placed to give these lectures as he is a co-author of two of those guidelines, the British Committee for Standards in Haematology antiphospholipid antibody guideline update that was published in early 2012, and is Vice-Chair for the first Clinical & Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) guideline on lupus anticoagulant detection that has just gone to press in the USA.

CLSI is a not-for-profit standards-developing organisation based in the USA covering all pathology specialties that publishes guidelines derived from international panels of experts. Gary is the sole UK representative for the lupus anticoagulant guideline.
