Everything you need to know about BioSkills Lab – Impact, Challenges and Future Directions

Innovation is important in biosciences. It leads to groundbreaking discoveries that redefine our understanding of life. At the heart of this innovation is the BioSkills Lab, a dynamic environment designed to promote scientific research and experimentation. These laboratories serve as hubs of creativity. It provides researchers and clinicians with the tools and resources they need to push knowledge boundaries.

A state-of-the-art bioskills lab is available at SMTS (Surgical and Medical Training Services). The SMTS BioSkills lab is equipped with a radiolucent operating table, operating lights, suction and basic equipment. To ensure the highest level of safety and hygiene, the tissues used in this laboratory are tested for HIV, HBC and HCV before purchase.

Committed to excellence, SMTS offers researchers and clinicians a favorable environment to embark on an innovative research journey in the biosciences.

The Anatomy of a BioSkills Lab

• Equipment and technology

In the BioSkills Lab, scientists and doctors use special equipment and machines to learn about the body and perform experiments.

Radiolucent surgical table:

This special desk allows doctors to see inside the room while working. It is transparent and helps doctors perform surgery more accurately.

Surgical lighting:

Bright lighting in the laboratory helps doctors see better during surgery. These lamps illuminate the work area directly, ensuring clear visibility.

Suction devices:

Suction devices drain fluid during operation. This will keep the area clean and allow the doctor to work without interruption.

Basic surgical equipment:

Bioskills lab has basic tools, knives, scissors, and tongs. These devices are needed to perform specific tasks during surgeries and experiments.

SMTs ensures BioSkills lab is equipped with the latest equipment and technology. Our goal is to create a safe environment that fosters learning and discovery in the life sciences.
