"Molecular in My Pocket™" Reference Card Series

The AMP Training and Education Committee has produced a series of quick reference cards for trainees and anyone looking to quickly reference molecular diagnostics information. These cards are reviewed and updated yearly. Printed cards will be available at meetings where AMP exhibits, but the cards are available for download here:
