Virology
the treatment and study of illnesses caused by viruses
Anatomy:
This is the study of the physical structure of the body.
Biochemistry:
A biochemist studies chemical components and how they affect the body.
Biomechanics:
This focuses on the structure of biological systems in the body and how they work, using a mechanical approach.
Biostatistics:
Researchers apply statistics to biological fields. This is crucial for successful medical research and many areas of medical practice.
Biophysics:
This uses physics, mathematics, chemistry, and biology to model and understand the workings of biological systems.
Cytology:
This is a branch of pathology that involves the medical and scientific microscopic study of cells.
Embryology:
This branch of biology studies the formation, early growth, and development of organisms.
Endocrinology:
Scientists investigate hormones and their impact on the body.
Epidemiology:
Researchers track the causes, distribution, and control of diseases in populations.
Genetics:
This is the study of genes and their impact on health and the body.
Histology:
This involves looking at the form of structures under the microscope. It is also known as microscopic anatomy.
Microbiology:
This is the study of organisms that are too small to see with the naked eye, known as microorganisms. Aspects of microbiology include bacteriology, virology, mycology (the study of fungi), and parasitology.
Neuroscience:
Neuroscientists study the nervous system and the brain and investigate diseases of the nervous system. Aspects of neuroscience include computational modelling and psychophysics. Some types of neuroscience are cognitive neuroscience, cellular neuroscience, and molecular neuroscience.
Nutrition:
Nutritionists study how food and drink influence health, and how they can help treat, cure, and prevent different diseases and conditions.
Allied Health Science:
Psychiatrists:
These professionals diagnose and treat mental illnesses. They collaborate with patients to establish the most appropriate drug treatment.
Industrial-Organizational Psychologist:
Often abbreviated as Industrial Organizational psychologists, industrial-organisational psychologists work for major corporations, applying organisational concepts to human resources, administration, management, sales, and marketing methods.
Military Psychologist:
Military psychologists are the most likely to work for one of the branches of the United States military, where they treat active duty people and veterans who are having difficulty coping with mental health difficulties. They conduct post-traumatic stress disorder and emotional disorders assessments on service members.
Neuropsychologists:
Their mission is to debunk the myths surrounding the brain's connections to behaviour, cognition, and emotion. Cognitive tests are frequently administered to patients by neuropsychologists to diagnose brain illnesses such as Alzheimer's or Parkinson's disease. They often work in laboratories or clinical settings where they do research.
Psychology professors:
Teach college courses in various psychology disciplines, including child, clinical, and developmental psychology, and do academic research; those teaching graduate-level courses may also supervise students' dissertation research.
Clinical psychologists:
Assist patients in identifying difficulties in their lives—emotional, mental, and behavioural issues—and then develop treatment plans to assist them in recovering from psychological disorders such as depression and anxiety.
Education psychologists:
Provide a range of mental health treatments to anyone involved in the educational system, including students, teachers, counsellors, administrators, and, in certain situations, parents. They assist in diagnosing learning problems, conducting psychological evaluations, and fostering helpful learning environments.
Sports psychologists:
Employ their knowledge of psychology and physiology to help professional athletes improve their performance and assist sports coaches in motivating their players. Numerous organisations also aid athletes in coping with off-field issues and in rehabilitation following an injury.
Forensic psychologists:
They are critical in assisting law enforcement in preventing and solving crimes. Often collaborating with police, forensic psychologists use their expertise in psychology to determine the individual who committed a crime.
Nursing:
Nurses care for the sick and infirm and endeavour to improve community health and disease prevention.
Optometry:
Optometrists are diagnosis care professionals who provide primary vision care, including anything from vision testing and correction to diagnosing, treating, and managing visual abnormalities.
Physiotherapy:
Physiotherapists are healthcare professionals who use a variety of treatment modalities such as massage, heat therapy, exercises, and electrotherapy to help patients recover from an accident, illness, or deformity.
Sciences of the Medical Laboratory:
Medical laboratory technicians/scientists perform laboratory processes such as specimen collecting, processing, and analysis to diagnose and research common diseases/conditions.
Audiology:
Audiologists are healthcare professionals that specialise in diagnosing and treating hearing and balance issues.
Technological Radiography:
Radiological technologists are health care professionals who perform diagnostic imaging treatments such as X-rays, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and computed tomography (CT) scans.
Technology Used in Operation Theaters:
Operation theatre techs or surgical assistants aid surgeons in preparing operating rooms for surgery and give technical assistance during operations.
Perfusion technology:
Perfusion technologists are healthcare professionals who operate a heart-lung machine and maintain the patient's physiological and metabolic needs. At the same time, the cardiac surgeon performs the heart operation.
Cardiovascular technology:
Cardiovascular technologists aid cardiologists in performing diagnostic and therapeutic procedures for heart diseases.
Medicine of the Emergency:
Emergency medical technicians are health care professionals that offer life-saving emergency care to sick and injured persons on the scene of an accident or in other locations and when they are transferred to a hospital for treatment.
Pharmacy:
Pharmacists are healthcare professionals who specialise in preparing and delivering medications.
Sciences of Rehabilitation:
Rehabilitation professionals treat and educate individuals with temporary or permanent disabilities in treatment to restore them to their highest level of function, well-being, and personally gratifying independence.
