Mumu. So you think Medlab is all about learning test procedures? A 300level Medlab student can comfortably give you the answers to to those LFT questions you asked talk more of a Chemical pathology specialist

Cmanforall:

Why do you want to switch to Medical Lab Science?
Are you marginalised?
I hope the MLS won't avoid this thread

The discrimination that exists in Laboratory Sciences are not heard of. But the Biochemist, Laboratory. Technician, microbiologist etc working in the hospital will rather contribute money to fight against the doctors than to seek equality in theor department first.

I don't know why you keep arguing with him. If you go through his posts on other medical related threads, you'll notice he has always had that hatred towards Med Lab. Scientists. His posts are just filled with ignorance. We should learn to respect each other in the Nigerian Medical sector and stop all this interprofessional hatred. Patients treatment and recovery is the goal and we should be working as a team towards achieving that, as seen in many developed countries

pembisco:

Stop consoling yourself. All those that carried out and still perform covid tests in Nigeria are certified Medlab scientists.

Usually year 2 in all unis. Use google mr man

Viraltrends123:
LOL, lie, use Google yourself and search BCH syllabus. We didn't do anything like anatomy. I'm a bch graduate. I can name all the courses we did in year 2. I'm a uniben alumni for your info, so I'm didn't pass through a private or state University

Legendforte:

oga pls browse uniben medical biochemistry course outline or any other public uni of your choice offering the med bcm program.

davbravo:
Don't use one school to make conclusions, because you claim Uniben offers the course as Medical Biochemistry. But in a lot of schools, it's just Biochemistry and it's usually under the faculty of Science, and they have no business with Anatomy and Physiology

Legendforte:

hmm.. check uniben course outline of med biochemistry.
All biomedical students study anat, physio, bioch and maybe mcb.

Viraltrends123:
See, I don't have your time. Seems you like argument. You are right, bch and MCB students do anatomy and physiology in year 2. Bye

Scholar212:
No they don't, I schooled in Uniben. You are missing up medical Biochemistry which is under basic medical science with pure Biochemistry in life science. Pure Biochemistry has no business with Anatomy and Physiology and only few schools offer medical Biochemistry as a stand alone course

Legendforte:

i really meant medical biochem, human physiology and medical microbiology.
these are professional scientists that should be accomodated in the labs.

Please the MLS specialist here advice me before making a wrong decision?

My daughter just got admission to study MLS at a state university, the payment for acceptance fees ends today yet to pay for acceptance. Unfortunately, I just learned that school fees is 1.2m which I can't afford as a private school teacher.

I am planning to change her course to anatomy which is 400k in the same school or she should forfeit the admission and write Jamb 2022 targetting an affordable school.

Please btw anatomy and MLS, which one has a viable future as in she would be able to stand on her own in the future. I don't want her to end up teaching in a private school like me in the future.

Benter stop wasting her time. Even a secondary school student should know that private universities are very expensive.

She could have chosen a federal university, at Max, her school fees should be around 50k/year or even less

The fight in the medical sector sha. I'm of the opinion that associate degrees should be allowed to enable Brethren from biological science programs enter into Med lab practice full time. During the pandemic, I remember how MLS guys trended hashtags for weeks on twitter wailing that there are being marginalized in the fight against Sars cov 2. The NCDC ignored their asses and employed graduates of Biotechnology, Biochemistry, Molecular biology, Molecular Microbiology, Virology to carryout Covid-19 tests . You can also checkout the degrees of graduates 54 gene employs as molecular scientists that carryout Covid-19 test in their mobile labs . Truth is some of our MLscientists aren't really grounded in Molecular diagnosis. It reminds me of when I had a written interview with some MLscientists from UNN for the role of Biomedical Scientist for a Molecular Pathology Lab in Enugu and they couldn’t explain explain the general protocol in DNA and RNA Isolation, and the basic PCR reaction principle. It was surprising to me, honestly.

she should abandon it and go for nursing or physioth.

Legendforte:
MBBS And DDS, DVM, PHARM.D, BNSc & BME are the fulcrum of health.
mls is inconsequential without the pathologists nd radiographers without the radiologists. Physioth is better. Optometry is mangeable.

Okay thanks. But may I know why nursing and physiotherapy?

Unigrad:

You get mind to vomit this rubbish?
70% of Medical diagnosis is base on Medical Laboratory results. It's a world statistics. Stop displaying your ignorance in public.
Who told you MLS is inconsequential without pathologists and radiographers?

Legendforte:

Defensive medicine makes u guys relevants. New techs likely to halt your technical involvement, hence clinicians can accelerate their care. Experienced clinicians depends lesser on unimportant testings. Advancement in point-of-care testing is reshaping clinical care.

Unigrad:

Medicolegal cases are coming, people are getting wiser, be encouraging blind treatment all in the name of ego, you said poc? POC or technological advancement can't never rule out the important of trained and qualified MLS. You don't know what you are doing if you rely on results from POC.
Are you indirectly saying Robotic and nano medicine is coming to take up the jobs of clinicians?
The sky is too big for two birds to crash. Stop fighting a lost battle.

keep yourself abreast of info in other regions. Get updated. Anyway, u guys are inconsequential without the pathologists.
