Below, find access to educational modules, cutting-edge research articles, and more.
Our dedicated team of in-house pathologists has developed a variety of educational modules, including videos and interactive courses, to aid in the interpretation of our assays. Access these modules, along with cutting-edge research articles and more, below.
Featured courses: high medical value assays
VENTANA ALK (D5F3) Assay in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)
A comprehensive interactive training course for the only CE marked Companion Diagnostics ALK IHC binary assay for NSCLC. The course is designed for pathologists and other professional users to provide background, science and interpretation of the VENTANA ALK (D5F3) Rabbit Monoclonal Primary Antibody (VENTANA ALK (D5F3) Assay) for use in the evaluation of NSCLC.
Over the sequential four modules, the user will learn how to assess the staining and interpretation of the VENTANA ALK (D5F3) Assay and concludes with a proficiency test. A certificate is offered to those who successfully complete the course.
Course completion time: 2-3 hours
