    When examining STEM careers and education, there is often a focus on very recent innovations. Advances in automation, computing power, connectivity, and other digital resources are common examples when stressing the importance of careers in STEM.
    But apart from building robots and bringing the human race closer to landing on MARS, science, technology, engineering, and mathematics-driven knowledge is vital for advancing the field of medicine.

    Doctors, nurses, and other healthcare providers can sometimes be overlooked as STEM related-careers, but they are considered jobs In STEM. And as healthcare needs not only grow but become more complex, life sciences like biology and chemistry will increasingly overlap with technology and engineering.

    This is already shown in the way doctors and nurses use complex tools and systems to administer patient care. Biometric scanning devices, robotic surgery instruments, and automatic pill dispensing machinery are just a few examples.

    To see other instances where STEM and patient care are strongly enmeshed, careers in medical technology are a perfect place to start.

    STEM Professionals In Healthcare

    Careers based in medical research and diagnostics, like imaging, are some of the best options for STEM professionals who are seeking a role in healthcare with a technology-centric edge. Pursuing a career as a medical technologist can open the door to many specializations that use STEM to better understand patient health and enable more effective care. magoda
