Workshop Summary

This report details the 2010 WHO HPV LabNet Training Workshop on HPV Genotyping and Serology Laboratory Performance, held in Lausanne, Switzerland (March 15-18, 2010). The workshop aimed to equip participants from 12 countries with knowledge on standardized HPV laboratory testing, advancing global surveillance and monitoring.

Background and Objectives
The World Health Organization established the HPV LabNet in 2006 to standardize laboratory procedures for HPV vaccine introduction. The 2010 workshop focused on HPV genotyping and serology assays, emphasizing international harmonization to ensure reliable data for epidemiological studies. Key objectives included training on assay protocols, quality control, and networking.

Key Content Covered

• Theoretical and Practical Sessions: Covered HPV biology, disease burden, assay development (e.g., PGMY-RBH genotyping and VLP-ELISA serology), proficiency testing, and data management.
• Laboratory Practices: Hands-on training included performing standardized assays, troubleshooting, and discussing real-world applications.
• Quality Assurance: Addressed QA/QC principles, international standards, and the use of tools like proficiency panels.
• International Harmonization: Stress was placed on standardization to enable cross-laboratory data comparability and support global HPV surveillance.

Participants and Outcomes
Twelve countries sent 15 participants to learn and share experiences in HPV testing. The workshop provided resources like the HPV Laboratory Manual and facilitated networking, helping participants enhance lab capacity, overcome challenges in low-resource settings, and plan future collaborative efforts.

Conclusions
The workshop successfully disseminated knowledge and promoted international cooperation, ensuring standardized, proficient assays for HPV surveillance and vaccination impact monitoring, ultimately contributing to global health initiatives.
