IMPORTANT UPDATE TO THE 2026 ANNUAL CONFERENCE
Dear MLC supporter,
After careful consideration, the MLC Board of Directors has made the difficult decision to postpone the in-person conference and transition to a virtual event this late summer due to unexpected logistical issues.
This decision was not made lightly, but we believe it is the best path forward to ensure we can deliver a high-quality experience that meets the expectations of our attendees, presenters, sponsors and partners. The conference will now be held virtually in late summer 2026.
Additional details, including dates, schedule information and updated programming will be shared soon. We understand this change may be disappointing, and we sincerely apologize for any inconvenience it may cause.
We are grateful for your support and continued commitment to our unique mobile lab community. If you have questions, please do not hesitate to reach out.
Thank you for your understanding, and we look forward to connecting with you virtually later this summer.
Sincerely,
MLC Conference Planning Committee and MLC Board of Directors
