About Us

Who we are...

The Association was founded in 2015 as a continuation to the efforts of the Jordanian Society for Medical Laboratory Science. Dr. Salwa Ammarin, later to become the president of the association, worked hard with her team to found the association and register it officially in the Ministry of Labour. Two years later, members of the second board took the task forward, and applied several key changes, which were approved by the general assembly. As a consequence, the association was renamed: Association of Jordanian Medical Laboratory Specialists (AJMLS), and opened its doors to all laboratory specialists and lab directors in Jordan. Since its inception in 2015, the association is working hard to organize, monitor, and improve the medical laboratory field and care for its workers, standing up for the rights of patients and professionals in the field.
