The 10 latest laboratory products to win a prized Seal of Quality have been revealed at the SelectScience® Virtual Summit on Cancer and Immunology Research 2020.
Seals of Quality recognize the top 0.1% of products that consistently receive the highest customer review ratings on SelectScience® and are designed to help scientists and healthcare professionals worldwide see at a glance the instruments and services their peers love the most.
Arif Butt, CEO and Co-Founder of SelectScience, and Editor-in-Chief and Publisher, Kerry Parker, announced the latest winners during the inaugural SelectScience® Virtual Summit on Cancer and Immunology Research.
