Moving to the Middle-East
You may have noted that the name of the blog has changed and now includes the Middle East & Africa. Well, I have now shifted my base of operations from Delhi to Dubai and this explains the long hiatus between blog entries. I have now settled down in my new position and can resume my dialogue with you.
There are a lot of interesting events happening in Dubai on the healthcare front. Dubai Health Care City (DHCC) is but one example of these changes. It is attracting Healthcare, Pharma & Life Science Companies from all over the world and aims to make Dubai the hub of medical services in the region. In August 2007, the Licensing & Specifications Department of the Department of Health & Medical Services (DOHMS) of the Government of Dubai published the Medical Laboratories Standards. This is a fairly comprehensive document and has similarities with the ISO 15189:2003 Standard.
I am looking forward to working with laboratories in the Middle-East & North Africa and making new friends and colleagues in the community here.
