The British In vitro Diagnostics Association (BIVDA) has appointed William Burns as president for a three-year term, in a move that is being branded as the beginning of a new era for the sector's leading voice in the UK. Mr Burns, with over 25 years' experience in the IVDs sector, including as president of the European Diagnostic Manufacturers Association (EDMA), replaces Brian Fishwick.
