Technology in the Lab: Where It Helps vs Where It Creates More Work

Join the ASCP Northern California Chapter for a discussion with Unika Alexander. Unika is the Co Founder and CEO of The Proficient Lab (TPL), an AI enabled platform focused on advancing laboratory compliance, quality management, and operational infrastructure.

At TPL, Unika champions the development of intelligent, interoperable systems that reduce administrative burden while strengthening traceability, standardization, and real time visibility across laboratory networks. Her work centers on transforming compliance from a reactive obligation into a proactive, data driven function that supports clinical quality, patient safety, and scalability. Unika will discuss equipping laboratories with modern tools to meet evolving regulatory expectations and workforce challenges.
