We’ve officially outgrown our building again!
April 30, 2010

Beginning May 1, 2010 our new address will be:

7175 Columbia Gateway Drive
Suite A
Columbia MD, 21046

We knew there was an issue when we had to institute a hiring freeze because we had literally run out of space for new employees! We’ve had a very consistent growth pace for the last few years, and the new building will definitely allow for the continued expansion we have planned.
The new facility offers a lot more space, room for onsite training, and larger workspaces for the FEi team. Feel free to stop by and see it anytime.

FEi has been recognized by MU-JHU/IDI Core Lab Management & Staff in Uganda, after placing 1st runner up in the 2010 Medical Laboratory of the Year held by the Medical Laboratory Observers (MLO).
April 30, 2010

This award is especially significant as it is the second time a laboratory outside of the U.S. is recognized in the MLO annual competition. The first such time was in 2008 when the MU-JHU Core Laboratory was also recognized as the 2nd runner up for Laboratory of the year. FEi congratulates MU-JHU Core Laboratory and Staff for their latest achievements and is excited at the prospect of being a part of future successes.

"Since its inception almost 20 years ago, MU-JHU Core Lab has gained a reputation for uncompromising standards of quality, excellent laboratory service, and a desire for building laboratory capacity in Uganda. Presently, no laboratory licensing or accreditation is available or required in Uganda; nevertheless, the MU-JHU Core Lab has been accredited by CAP since April 2003 — the second-ever CAP-accredited lab on the African continent (currently, there are about six). For a lab in a developing country struggling with provisions for essential services, this is a remarkable achievement."
