Course objectives
Specialist practice complements the practical part of education in Clinical Biochemistry, Clinical Hematology, Immunohematology and Transfusion medicine, Clinical Microbiology, Clinical Immunology, Clinical Genetics and Pathologic Anatomy – Histopathologic determination methods. Students become familiar with the organization of workflow processes and basic documentation of laboratory worksites and will perform select tasks and activities.; The aim of the course is to acquaint students with the operation in genetic laboratories, laboratory equipment and instrumentation procedures. Part of the course is visiting to the genetic clinic and get basic knowledge about genetic testing procedures.
