Medical laboratory scientists are often thought of as people who spend their days in a lab, working on the bench, but there are many opportunities for medical laboratory scientists away from these benches.  

In fact, some of the most interesting opportunities for medical laboratory scientists are outside of the clinical lab. You can work in research and development, veterinary biology and even lab equipment maintenance; you have all sorts of opportunities for diversification and advancement.  

If you're an MLS or MLT in Nigeria and want to know more about what opportunities you may have for diversification within the field, follow this discussion with a Nigerian Medical Laboratory Scientist, Jesse Buba.
