- About Us
National lab week is April 23-27, and we’re celebrating our amazing lab at LeConte Medical Center! This fun crew jokingly refers to themselves as “vampires.” The metaphor is two-fold, not only are they responsible for drawing blood, but they also tease that it’s a great job for an introvert because you aren’t often “out on the front lines.” We asked the group a few questions:
What’s your favorite thing about working in the lab?
Buffie: “I like to stick people all day! Haha!”
Sebastian: “I like helping patients, but also not having to be out in front of a lot of people.”
Jerri: “We provide a lot of helpful information.”
If someone is interested in going into this field, what would you tell them?
Whitney: “I would say do it! It’s fun!”
Sebastian: “If you like science, and want a job, there are lots of lab opportunities out there. We’re not highly visible, but you can find a job anywhere and you can play your part in making people healthier.”
We’ve had a few fun get-together’s this week. What’s your favorite food for an office celebration?
Group: “Pizza! Or donuts! Or anything for free, really! Haha!”
