This poem is a reminder that every request number in the lab represents a patient waiting for a result that can have a significant impact on their life
Delighted to have a poem published in the summer edition of #Converse magazine. Many thanks to @Hmabarry and @ACSLM1 for including it.
The Life Behind is a reminder to #medicalscientists of the importance of our often difficult working life to patients and their families.

In celebration of #BiomedicalScienceDay2019 here's @HayleyPincott explaining the crucial role of pathologists in hospitals "Pathologists like me save lives daily. Yet so few people know what we do" theguardian.com/healthcare-n⦠#AtTheHeartOfHealthcare
All this week we're hosting some work experience students from @GreenheadCol. Hopefully they'll go away knowing a lot more about what we do behind the curtain and maybe want to work in Pathology!
