The MEDICA trade fair will be taking place in Dusseldorf, Germany on the 16th-19th November. MEDICA is the world's largest medical trade fair and has been an important event in the healthcare professionals calendar for the last 40 years. Taking place in 17 huge halls at the Messe Düsseldorf GmbH, MEDICA showcases the most advanced technology available to the medical profession and attracts over 130,000 visitors every year.

Halls 1-3 house the clinical laboratory equipment and in vitro diagnostic products.

However there is still plenty for the visiting laboratory based healthcare professional to see and do.
