What is the IBMS?

What is the IBMS?

As you may already know by now I am currently studying Bsc Biomedical Science and in class this week we learnt about two different organisations in the science field that are very important. 

A Biomedical Scientist is someone who is scientifically qualified and registered practitioner who work in clinical pathology departments.
To qualify as a biomedical scientist need to have both academic (Biomedical Science degree) and vocational (training in a lab). 

The Institute of Biomedical Science
Aims:
Represent its members and set standards of behavior of members and enable career development and educate its members and promote biomedical science to the public and to award qualifications. 

The Biomedical scientists are monthly and keep up to date news and job vacancies and help publish articles. 

The British Journal Science are quarterly and describes scientifically research and to improve techniques. 


To join the IBM there is different membership levels:
1-Associate:  A qualification of level 2- non equivalent UK degree e.g. international degree. 
2-Licentiate- IBMS accredited degree + IBMS certificate of competence from a registered portfolio 
3-Member-Speciaist Diploma + Msc + Licentiate for 2 years. 
5-Fellow- Higher specialist Diploma+  PHD + member for 3 years
