Abstract

Abstract The programme of the German Congress for Laboratory Medicine 2022 was essentially designed by the divisions of the German Society for Clinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine (DGKL). Almost all chairpersons of the divisions organised a 90-min symposium on current topics, i.e. conceptualised the symposia and invited speakers. For this article all chairpersons summarised the lectures that were given within the symposia. The DGKL’s work is structured into 5 areas of expertise: Molecular Diagnostics, Learning & Teaching, Quality & Management, Laboratory & Diagnostics and Biobanks & Informatics. The areas of expertise are in turn subdivided into divisions. About the history of the establishment of this new structure within the DGKL you can find information in the editorial of this issue.
