Clinical Bioinformatician Body of Knowledge—Clinical Laboratory Regulation and Data Security Core A Report of the Association for Molecular Pathology
Clinical Bioinformatician Body of Knowledge -Clinical Laboratory Regulation and Data Security Core
A Report of the Association for Molecular Pathology
This course contains the webinar, a handout, and continuing education credit (CME and CMLE)
Description:
The third article in the Association for Molecular Pathology's Clinical Bioinformatician Body of Knowledge Core series presents a body of knowledge for the clinical bioinformatician describing relevant laboratory regulations and data security in the domains of hardware, software, networks, and interoperability. Although this article does not substitute for legal counsel, it provides a resource for clinical bioinformaticians to identify and familiarize themselves with regulations affecting their professional functions within the laboratory.
See the publication here.
Learning Objectives:
- Identify governmental and non-governmental entities that issue requirements and standards for clinical molecular diagnostic laboratories
- Explain the major clinical laboratory regulations in the United States that impact clinical bioinformaticians
- Employ data security principles in the domains of hardware, software, and networking
