A medical laboratory scientist (MLS), also traditionally referred to as a clinical laboratory scientist (CLS), is a healthcare professional who performs chemical, hematological, immunologic, histopathological, cytopathological, microscopic, and bacteriological diagnostic analyses on body fluids such as blood, urine, sputum, stool, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), peritoneal fluid, pericardial fluid, and synovial fluid, as well as other specimens. Medical laboratory scientists work in clinical laboratories at hospitals, reference labs, biotechnology labs and non-clinical industrial labs.

Does atiba accept Medical lab technician certificate as direct entry to medical laboratory science and were can i do my Alevel programme
ReplyDeleteMore likely YES. You will do well if you can visit the university's admission office for more details.
DeletePlease what is the difference between science lab technology and med lab
ReplyDeleteScience Laboratory Technology Program focuses on the fundamental principles of the biological and physical sciences and emphasizes analytical laboratory techniques and applications, specifically in the realms of chemistry and biology.
DeleteClinical laboratory sciences (also known as medical technology or medical laboratory science) is a biology/chemistry-based bachelor's degree that prepares students for exciting, challenging and dynamic careers in places such as hospital labs and clinics, forensic labs, veterinary clinics, industrial research labs etc
Pls sir does university of ibadan offers MLS as a remedial course
ReplyDeleteI mean for pre degree
They don't do remedial/pre-degeree. Read the post below
