An Introduction to Biomedical Science in Professional and Clinical Practice /

Abstract

This book is intended to help biomedical scientists undertaking their preregistration training; we aim to help them understand the important aspects of working as a professional biomedical scientist in the clinical laboratory. It will be useful for students on ‘coterminous’ or ‘integrated’ Applied Biomedical Science BSc programmes, graduate trainee biomedical scientists and other staff who need to be aware of the knowledge and competency required to be a Health Professions Council registered practitioner. The book will also help qualified staff involved in training, by providing background information, key definitions and sources of further information. It brings together the essential information into a single text and points the reader towards more detailed sources where they might be appropriate.
