Medical Laboratory Scientist
A medical laboratory scientist (MLS), also known as a medical technologist or clinical laboratory scientist, works to analyze a variety of biological specimens. They are responsible for performing scientific testing on samples and reporting results to physicians. Medical laboratory scientists perform complex tests on patient samples using sophisticated equipment like microscopes.
