ARUP Newsroom

ARUP’s dedicated employees, including Brook Berger, a lab supervisor, make a difference in the lives of patients every day. A workplace culture that prioritizes patient care is among the strengths that landed ARUP on Forbes’ list of America’s Best Employers by State for 2021.

On a tour of ARUP’s state-of-the-art laboratory facility, Chief Operations Officer Jonathan Genzen, MD, PhD, explains to Rep. Burgess Owens, R-Utah, the role that automated sorters play in getting specimens through the laboratory to specific testing locations.

An ARUP employee reviews the result of a test to detect the presence of ova or parasites in a specimen. ARUP and Techcyte collaborated in 2019 to produce the world’s first artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled detection tool, which helps laboratorians quickly screen out negative results so they can spend more time analyzing slides that show positive results.

In a Clinical Laboratory News article he coauthored, ARUP Medical Director Brian Jackson, MD, describes how the COVID-19 pandemic has expanded access to testing services and created an opportunity for clinical laboratories to build on patient-centered lab stewardship.

Sean McGary wasn’t sure what kind of career he wanted when he started at ARUP in an entry-level position. He just needed a reliable schedule with a stable company. Since then, McGary has consistently moved up into positions with more responsibility and increased pay.
