Laboratory Technical Committee
The Laboratory Technical Committee develops and maintains the Technical Framework for the IHE Laboratory Domain.
Scope and Current Work
The planning committee successfully voted to bring forward one new supplement this year, the creation of the Laboratory Analytical Workflow (LAW) profile in joint work with IICC.

Meeting Roster
Representatives with a Roster Status of Co-chair, Liaison, Voting (or possibly Alternate) may vote and count towards quorum. A - represents a missed meeting.
Representatives with a Roster Status of Secretary or Non-voting or Observer may not vote or count towards quorum. A + represents an attended meeting.
Voting privileges and attendance apply to IHE Member Organizations, so the list is sorted by Member Organization to facilitate this. The Cochairs and Secretary are listed at the top.
