Abstract
Opportunity is the essence of a career in science or medicine and this continues to be a major source of satisfaction for the many scientists and health care providers worldwide. Having trained as a PhD scientist, the world of clinical medicine seemed to be a galaxy away. I could not have been more wrong in that assumption. Here, I tell the story of my career trajectory so that those new to the sciences understand the potential and the opportunities afforded by a career in clinical laboratory medicine.
