Hi Eve,
Medical Laboratory Technicians perform routine medical laboratory tests for the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of disease. May work under the supervision of a medical technologist. They also conduct blood tests for transfusion purposes and perform blood counts.
Other tasks include:
Conduct chemical analyses of body fluids, such as blood or urine, using microscope or automatic analyzer to detect abnormalities or diseases and enter findings into computer.
Analyze the results of tests or experiments to ensure conformity to specifications, using special mechanical or electrical devices.
Inoculate fertilized eggs, broths, or other bacteriological media with organisms.
Set up, maintain, calibrate, clean, and test sterility of medical laboratory equipment.
Obtain specimens, cultivating, isolating, and identifying microorganisms for analysis.

Hi Cyril, Although this link is provides good information, sending a student to a different link isn't the most helpful response. Students are looking for personal insight from professionals in the field. Any information you can provide on the typical day for a clinical scientist would be appreciated!
