APHA Scientific to contribute expertise at chemical and biological risk management event

APHA colleagues will be attending a Star Ecotronics event Control of chemical and biological risk within the global supply chain; strategies, methods and models for risk mitigation and economic efficiency.

The event will take place on 12 May 2026 in Milan, Italy, at Palazzo Reale, Conference Room, Piazza Duomo 14, 20122 Milano. This provides an opportunity for existing and potential VETQAS customers to engage directly with subject matter experts, alongside a wider scientific programme addressing chemical and biological risk management.

As part of the event, Dr Neil Dear, Head of VETQAS Proficiency Testing, will present on proficiency testing, ring trials and the use of biological reagents to validate diagnostic and serology methods.
