The Journal of Applied Laboratory Medicine (JALM) is published online by AACC. This
international, peer-reviewed publication showcases applied research on clinically relevant
laboratory topics as well as commentary on the practice of clinical chemistry and laboratory
medicine.
Laboratory medicine professionals play an essential role on healthcare teams by providing
vital guidance so patients get the care they need. With The Journal of Applied Laboratory
Medicine, AACC aims to help lab professionals discover new adaptive solutions to patient
health problems and to drive innovation in the field. This new journal expands on the scope of
the cutting edge research featured in Clinical Chemistry by focusing on translational or
applied laboratory medicine studies. JALM considers for publication submissions on
laboratory methods, evidence based laboratory medicine, flow cytometry, management, best
practices, appropriate test utilization, critical care, and pediatric testing. Additionally, it
provides a forum for discussion of policy and regulatory issues that impact the field.
