West Midlands ACB

Welcome to the ACB West Midlands Region of the Association of Clinical Biochemists.

Our role is to offer support to all ACB members in the Region - which includes the counties of Hereford & Worcester, Shropshire, Staffordshire, Warwickshire and the Birmingham area. We work to improve all aspects of clinical science in local laboratories and join with our colleagues at national level to take forward clinical biochemistry as a vital part of the modern health service. On top of all that we also aim to have some fun.

In this section of the site you'll find News, Links, and Contacts. Other sections contain important and developing regional resources:
