The Comparative Laboratory Medicine (CLM) Special Interest Group is an active and comprehensive group that integrates multiple specialties within the field of laboratory medicine. Its reach extends to preclinical and clinical research, as well as diagnostic applications in humans, diverse research species, and veterinary medicine. At the forefront of the group's mission is providing leadership within the association, driving advancements in science, technology, and the integration of clinical laboratory data. By promoting and facilitating knowledge exchange, the group actively fosters improvements in the practice of clinical laboratory science across various species, including humans.

A key focus of the group lies in supporting the development of cutting-edge methods to detect both beneficial and adverse effects on specific target organs and cellular changes linked to diseases and xenobiotic agents. These efforts span across a wide range of therapeutic and disease areas.

Through collaborations with therapeutic and diagnostic manufacturers, as well as preclinical, clinical, and pharmacological organizations, the group drives progress and innovation. It serves as a vital platform for sharing pertinent information on instrumentation, methods of analysis for diverse animal models, selection of appropriate species for research purposes, and the evaluation of translational studies to human medicine.
