Consulting MD - Pathologist/Hematologist
LMS has developed a cell separation technology that captures fetal
nucleated red cells in maternal blood samples. These cells are then
used for prenatal genetic screening, as an eventual alternative to
amniocentesis.
We need a consultant who can enumerate (count) these cells when fixed
on slides and comment on their morphology. The cells will have a
background of other nucleated cells (WBCs) and a some RBCs.
We are generating slides faster than our staff can evaluate and have a
backlog of ~75 sides and expect to have 10-15 additional slides per
week for evaluation by the consultant. Each slide takes ~1 hr to
evaluate.
Ideally, the person could work at LMS so that we can learn from their
expertise, but this is not essential after the initial slides have
been read here. We also will have digital images of the slides with
the coordinates of the cells of interest in a software file (Bioview
system). This feature allows the Bioview system to find them quickly
for evaluation.
