“These worksheets can deliver exposure to real world scenarios that as laboratory scientists we encounter on a regular basis. It highlights the key considerations and approaches to handling laboratory data and linking it into presenting symptoms, treatment regimens and clinical guidance. This is great preparation for interpretation of results as a scientist in the pathology lab.”
