ETH Zurich and the IBM Zurich Research Laboratory - strategic partnership in nanotechnology

ETH Zurich and the IBM Zurich Research Laboratory (ZRL) have today announced the establishment of a strategic partnership in nanotechnology. The two partner institutions will operate a new, common nanotech laboratory, which will be built on the ZRL campus. The new building inludes cutting-edge research infrastructure and will cost 90 mil-lion USD. The two partners have a long-standing tradition of scientific cooperation, and now make an important step to deepen this collaboration further by forming a strategic partnership in the field of nanotechnology. The collaborative project was revealed at a joint media conference in Zurich by Prof. Ralph Eichler, President of ETH Zurich, and John E. Kelly III, Senior Vice-President and Director of IBM Research.

07/10/08 - Congress Repeals Lab Competitive Bidding, Reverses Physician Pay Cut

The Senate on July 9 approved legislation that repeals the laboratory competitive bidding demonstration project, extends the so-called "TC grandfather clause" for 18 months, and reverses the 10.6 percent cut in physician reimbursements that took effect July 1. The measure already passed the House and now goes to the president for his signature. “This is a great day for laboratories and the Medicare beneficiaries who rely on critically important laboratory services,” said Alan Mertz, president of the American Clinical Laboratory Association (ACLA). “We now urge President Bush to sign this much needed legislation into law as soon as possible.”
