🎙️ SPECIAL EDITION | SUPERSTAT
Some stories are too important to stay untold.
Before the headlines faded and before the world moved on, laboratory professionals were living a chapter of healthcare history that few people ever witnessed. Long hours. Impossible decisions. Quiet resilience. Moments of heartbreak, hope, and humanity behind the laboratory doors.
In this special edition of SUPERSTAT, we're taking listeners behind the scenes of an upcoming publishing project that has been years in the making.
Co-edited by Dr. Rodney E. Rohde and Dr. Melody Boudreaux Nelson, this collection brings together the voices of laboratory professionals from across the profession, sharing personal reflections from one of the most challenging periods in modern healthcare.
This isn't a book about laboratory testing.
It's a book about the people behind the science.
Join us as we discuss why these stories matter, what readers can expect, and why preserving the experiences of laboratory professionals is an important part of healthcare history.
This episode offers an exclusive first look at a project we can't wait to share with the laboratory community.
📚 The story is almost here.

In this episode of SUPERSTAT, we explore the growing role of self-collected and at-home STI testing, discussing how these technologies are improving access to care while also raising important questions about diagnostic quality, follow-up, reporting, health equity, and the future role of laboratory professionals.
Join us as we discuss:
How self-testing is improving access for patients
Public health implications and reporting challenges
How laboratories continue to provide critical expertise behind the scenes
What the future of decentralized diagnostics may look like
As healthcare continues to move beyond the traditional clinic, laboratories remain an essential part of ensuring patients receive accurate, reliable, and actionable results.
Whether you're a laboratory professional, clinician, public health practitioner, educator, student, or simply curious about where diagnostics are headed, this episode provides practical insight into one of today's most important conversations in laboratory medicine.
