Discover a career in biomedical science

Every day, biomedical scientists work behind the scenes in healthcare laboratories, analysing blood, tissue and other patient samples to help diagnose disease, monitor treatment and inform patient care.

Join the Institute of Biomedical Science (IBMS) during National Pathology Week for an interactive webinar exploring what biomedical scientists do, where they work and how you can become one.

What will you discover?

We’ll follow a patient sample on its journey through the laboratory and introduce you to some of the different areas of biomedical science.

You’ll meet biomedical scientists and hear first-hand about their work, how they got into the profession and what their jobs are really like.

We’ll also explore:

• What biomedical scientists do and their role in patient care
• The different areas of biomedical science you could work in
• The skills and interests that could make biomedical science a good career for you
• Routes into the profession, including university degrees and apprenticeships

You’ll also have the chance to put your questions directly to our biomedical scientists during a live Q&A.

Who should attend?

This free webinar is ideal for:

• Secondary school students
• Sixth-form and college students
• Young people considering careers in science or healthcare
• Parents and carers supporting young people with their career choices
• Teachers and careers advisers

You don’t need any previous knowledge of biomedical science – just an interest in finding out more.

Could biomedical science be the career for you? Join us during National Pathology Week and find out.
