Innovators will usually have four main goals:

• Developing or creating new applications, relationships, systems, or products.
• Providing creative ideas or artistic contributions.
• Keeping up-to-date technically and applying new knowledge to your job.
• Benchmarking, experimenting and testing novel approaches to solving problems.

Inspectors should be great at:

• Estimating sizes, distances, and quantities; or determining time, costs, resources, or materials needed to perform a work activity.
• Observing, receiving, and otherwise obtaining information from all relevant sources.
• Identifying information by categorizing, estimating, recognizing differences or similarities, and detecting changes in circumstances or events.
• Inspecting equipment, structures, or materials to identify the cause of errors or other problems or defects.

• Developing and implementing training programs for trainees, medical students, resident physicians or post doctoral fellows.
• Staining slides for making chromosomes visible for microscopy.
• Summarizing testing results and reporting to appropriate authorities.
• Selecting or preparing specimens and media for cell cultures using aseptic techniques, knowledge of medium components, or cell nutritional requirements.
• Selecting banding methods to permit identification of chromosome pairs.
• Identifying appropriate methods of specimen collection, preservation, or transportation.
• Preparing slides of cell cultures following standard procedures.
• Selecting appropriate methods of preparation and storage of media for maintaining potential of hydrogen (ph), sterility, or ability for supporting growth.
• Harvesting cell cultures using substances such as mitotic arrestants, cell releasing agents, and cell fixatives.
• Creating chromosome images using computer imaging systems.
• Determining optimal time sequences and methods for manual or robotic cell harvests.
