Introduction to Clinical Mycology

Volunteer

March 2012

Once you learn information in the clinical laboratory, it is one thing to keep it to yourself and do a good job, but it is something else to share it with those around you so that they can do the same. You need to share your information readily. You need to share it within your own laboratory. You need to teach anywhere you can. And if you have the urge, you can volunteer to teach in workshops or regional groups around and try to show them what you have learned and let them pass it along to others. And that way we all learn to help our patients.
