Histro - pathologist
Histologist Studies human or animal tissue to provide data to delineate cause and progress of disease that impairs body function: Trains and oversees laboratory personnel in preparing tissue sections or prepares tissue sections from surgical and diagnostic cases and autopsies. Examines tissue under microscope to detect characteristics of cell structure indicative of disease and writes diagnostic reports. Devises and directs use of special stains and methods for isolating, identifying, and studying function, morphology, and pathology of obscure or difficult-to-identify cells, tissues, and connecting fibers. May also conduct autopsies to select tissue specimens for study. May also engage in research to develop techniques for diagnosing and identifying pathological conditions. May also study anatomy of body tissues, formation of organs, and related problems to obtain data on body functions.
Palaeontologist
Paleontology is the study of the history of life on Earth, as reflected in the fossil record. Fossils are the remains or traces of organisms (plants, animals, fungi, bacteria and other single-celled living things) that lived in the geological past and are preserved in the crust of the Earth. There are many subdivisions of the field of paleontology, including vertebrate paleontology (the study of fossils of animals with backbones), invertebrate paleontology (the study of fossils of animals without backbones), micropaleontology (the study of fossils of single-celled organisms), paleobotany (the study of plant fossils), taphonomy (the study of how fossils form and are preserved), biostratigraphy (the study of the vertical distribution of fossils in rocks), and paleoecology (the study of ancient ecosystems and how they developed). Paleontologists also frequently are involved in studies of evolutionary biology.
Phlebotomist
Phlebotomists obtain blood and other samples for laboratory testing. They establish professional relationships with their patients, collect and prepare specimens, maintain collection areas and equipment, and perform record keeping duties. Phlebotomists work in medical laboratories in hospitals, for-profit laboratories, clinics, nursing homes, public health facilities, and associated healthcare industries. In rural Alaska, phlebotomists are employed in hospitals, subregional clinics, physician’s offices, and other medical laboratory settings.
Physiotherapist
Assesses a range of health problems resulting from illness, injury, disability or through ageing. Treats these problems with massage, movement, exercise and technology.Uses physical means to treat and prevent damage and relieve pain by treating injury, illness and other conditions. Assists the rehabilitation process by developing and restoring the function of the body, enabling patients to improve their mobility and use of their bodies.Guides the patient through a treatment programme, directing or assisting movement.
