I'm a medical laboratory scientist, I majored in Histopathology. I respect my profession alot!

[@vivekrana8090]

Hello, could you tell me a bit more about what undergraduate degree (bachelors) is need to have a career in this field? Will a bachelor of science be sufficient or a more specialised bachelors is needed? Thank youu

[@medicaltechnologist21]

Is bs Medical laboratory technology and medical laboratory science are same

[@amitsah3790]

Where do you do work

[@lalordlyrics820]

Is that the same with what med tech's do?

[@nelsonlaurence2043]

Sadly as in Malaysia.. This carrier is 10years away back and always be considered as backliner. I'm graduated degree in MLS. MLTs in Malaysia are stuck at diploma level. We're still waiting to be upgraded. Pray for us.

[@TheeMakau]

The growth is slow, it's the same case in Nigeria and Kenya.

High performance analytics am seeing, just so great and superb video with good content

I'm a medical laboratory scientist. I'm majoring in Bioinformatics. BIOINFORMATICS is an interdisciplinary field, which harnesses computer science, mathematics, physics, and biology. Interesting, right? Mostly we use computer technology to collect, store, analyze and disseminate biological data and information, such as DNA and amino acid sequences or annotations about those sequences. The very foundation of bioinformatics is dependent on your ability to code. And so it combines computer science and laboratory medicine. Interdisciplinary. Quite thrilling.

[@cythrainp1704]

This is pretty representative of what a MLS can do in large lab. I would seek out more information for those who are looking at a smaller size lab because testing techniques will be quite different since this is exclusively automated.

[@sloo6425]

In NZ, labs are moving away from a community lab and hospital lab as a separate entity. More for cost saving for the low population size here in NZ. Micro, Biochem and hematology is pretty much standard in most places, just scaling.

[@khaliyakhan2625]

Hello I am interested in this field but I suck at chemistry and math how hard is the chemistry and math inside this profession

[@manuu5241]

Hey.. I'm an undergraduate in medical laboratory scientist..can you tell me what are the path after having MLS degree

[@camillesingh6826]

I'm in nursing but I wonder if im smart enough for this... its very chem orientated and I only took orgo 1

Thank you.

i AM MEDICAL TECHNOLOGIST IN LAB MEDICINE . I AM RESPECT MY JOB.

[@al_h2686]

I'm thinking about this career but I'm worry about that I need to learn how to work with all these machines more than working with the patient’s issues

[@elafalasadi7308]

Don't worry about it. Troubleshooting is actually fun, plus you can always call the field engineers and they'll take care of the rest. So ultimately it is not your responsibility.

[@thabangramokoena6229]

Requires couple more experience to deal vividly with analytics,but with time u get used to it so it's just cool to deal

[@kareNstampZ]

A great overview, what a shame the voice to text is so inaccurate at interpreting what is being said

[@DaveMasonNZ]

Hi Karen, Thanks very much for your kind feedback, much appreciated. We'll get on to KZbin to see what can be done about the voice to text system.Kind regards, Dave, Producer

[@DaveMasonNZ]

Sadly a Kiwi accent isn't always easily interpreted on KZbin! Sorry about that

[@festohaki4862]

awesome

[@hammertime663]

None of those techs were generalists. Try working the whole lab every night. These girls would have no clue and thus quit after 3 weeks. Way too much work and you need to know everything in every department. Might get away without the microbiology part but you still need to plate stat csf's and do a gram stain. Generalist for 20 years and I pride myself on knowing way more than some of the dr's I work with.

[@BlackGirlLovesAnime6]

Too bad you don’t get that dr pay. I wish the pay for this career was easily over 100k because it definitely deserves it

[@amitsah3790]

Great job

How much salary does your company give one lab assistant.

[@salamimarves1239]

I am a medical laboratory technician from Nigeria.How do I join your company for a voluntary service.

[@hammertime663]

Just like here in the US, this lab is made up of about 85% women, and of those 90% are from India.
