Do you think you could find some info about laboratory Geneticists? Specifically those that complete PhDs and CCMG Fellowships. I have information on where to study, but nothing in job prospects or salary. Maybe you'll have better luck.
ReplyDeleteI'm finding the salary to be mid 70-80k, and the job prospects to be fair. There seems to be more opportunities in genetic counselling, though. Here are some links I found:
