Clinical laboratory science is crucial in the detection, diagnosis and treatment of disease. Clinical lab scientists use sophisticated instruments such as microscopes, electronic counters, and automated analyzers to test blood, tissue, and body fluids. Laboratory personnel must be concerned with accuracy and be able to work under pressure. There are many areas of specialization in clinical laboratory science, including clinical chemistry, microbiology, immunology, hematology and blood bank technologies. Educational training ranges from certificate programs in phlebotomy to doctoral degrees in the clinical laboratory sciences. If you have strong analytical and technical skills and can work well on your own, you may find a career in clinical laboratory science to be very rewarding.
