Te whiwhinga mahi | The Opportunity
The Diagnostic Genetics laboratory provides a comprehensive service using both cytogenetic and molecular genetic techniques enabling us to provide a diagnostic and follow-up service for prenatal, postnatal and malignancy patients. Both the cytogenetic and microarray team work closely together to deliver a quality service. The Cytogenetic team uses both G-banded karyotype and FISH techniques to characterise chromosomal aberrations to establish the diagnosis and prognosis of these patients. The array team uses chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA) to identify gains and losses of genomic material that are related to clinical phenotypes.
In this role, you will perform laboratory analysis and associated tasks ensuring delivery of high quality and timely services in line with clinical expectations with an overall emphasis on quality outcomes. Depending on the your skill set and experience, this role will be primarily based in either the Cytogenetics or Microarray team, however you may be required to work in any section of the Diagnostic Genetics laboratory.
