Wichita State University's Molecular Diagnostics Lab is a state-of-the art facility
that can process as many as 32,000 specimens per week with a 24-hour turnaround on
results. The lab opened in 2020 in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Wichita State’s Molecular Diagnostics Lab (MDL) is re-opening COVID test collections
to the public starting today (March 1).
Testing will be conducted differently than previously, now following a 3-step process:

Schedule your appointment to get tested.

The MDL, which opened in October 2020, was built in response to COVID-19 as a lab
that could test large quantities of specimens with a short turnaround, allowing for
precise quarantine and treatment of those infected and mitigating the spread of the
virus.
