EPBS - European Association for Professions in Biomedical Science

 The EPBS was formed in May 1999 at The Hague, Netherlands. This non profit organisation is committed to promoting best practice and ethics for Biomedical Laboratory Scientists throughout Europe. It was officially registered in Brussels, Belgium in 2006 as an international non-profit association.

The aims of the EPBS are to:

• promote the maintenance of the highest possible standards of practice within biomedical science;
• develop the ethical and professional values of the biomedical scientist; 
• support the training and education of the biomedical scientist in order to improve health care provision;
