This poem is a reminder that every request number in the lab represents a patient waiting for a result that can have a significant impact on their life

Delighted to have a poem published in the summer edition of #Converse magazine. Many thanks to @Hmabarry and @ACSLM1 for including it. The Life Behind is a reminder to #medicalscientists of the importance of our often difficult working life to patients and their families.

HPV vaccines are so effective that cervical cancer could ultimately be eliminated, a new study finds. nyti.ms/2J08vcd



Well done both, but especially Paul who runs our phlebotomy department. Another award for Pathology!

In celebration of #BiomedicalScienceDay2019 here's @HayleyPincott explaining the crucial role of pathologists in hospitals "Pathologists like me save lives daily. Yet so few people know what we do" theguardian.com/healthcare-net… #AtTheHeartOfHealthcare


All this week we're hosting some work experience students from @GreenheadCol. Hopefully they'll go away knowing a lot more about what we do behind the curtain and maybe want to work in Pathology!

High blood glucose level can cause interference on RBC indices on some of the automatic CBC analyzers, giving falsely increased MCV, falsely low MCHC, while MCH stays normal. Here is an article ➡️ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/m/pubmed/72590… What's your labs protocol of solving this? #blooducation
