Intern is massive b-word

One of our samples is from a living person. The intern is uncomfortable with the fact that the sample is from a living person. Get the frick over it, we aren't working with patients so it doesn't matter. Prep the karyotype and FISH slides and send the remaining marrow down to TriCore or LabCorp. I don't give a frick that the patient is alive, this is a job and they need to do their job. They are in the wrong field if they think samples given is an issue. If I was the person doing the tap I would make that hip dry just to prove a point that we don't give a shit.

The best samples are taken from patients without their consent anyway

The best samples are alive patients which makes for an annoying consent back and forth for lab work but thankfully I don't have to deal with that.

Actively replicating cancer cells provide more insight since we can force them into certain cell stages and observe what proteins and markers are used in a pseudo body. Cancer cells from dead bodies give shit results and are a major pain to deal with.

Just use HeLa like everyone else and shut up.
