As a Medical Laboratory Scientist working in a molecular lab, my focus was using flow cytometry to analyze immune system fells and accurately characterize hematological malignancies. I also employed FISH (Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization) methodology to identify chromosomal abnormalities, which plays a crucial role in diagnostic purposes. In my role, I worked closely with pathologists, collaborating to assist in patient diagnoses by providing valuable insights based on the laboratory findings I generated. Ensuring the accuracy and reliability of test results is of utmost importance, so I conducted thorough quality control measures and effectively troubleshot laboratory equipment when needed. This dedication to quality helped in delivering precise and dependable outcomes for the medical team and, ultimately, the patients we serve. •Helped laboratory improve efficiency in specimen processing and turn around time of patient results.
