What is this podcast about?
This podcast is about life in the medical laboratory and discusses issues that are important to the people who work there. We also will give you tips and support for some of the unique challenges of working in the medical laboratory and in health care. Although each episode will have a laboratory slant to it, many people working in health care may find the information useful and relatable. We’ll be talking to subject matter experts in their fields, such as lawyers, union representatives and physicians, using their expertise to help you.
