SubcompetencyStudent Quote RR2 I probably won’t stress about how I still lack knowledge on small details of hematopoiesis now that I know there’s a whole degree centered around knowing these nuances. RR4 I now understand the responsibilities of the clinical lab students. I believe that ignorance is the biggest cause of disrespect between professions in the medical field. Keep up the good work integrating IPE activities into major medical classes! CC7 I am not sure I expect much from this brief meeting, maybe if there were more meetings. Hopefully down the road, the doctors and lab techs will correspond well with each other.
