Microptic Cytogenetics developed from a freelance organisation originating in 1985 to the current organisation made up of the head of management, a quality co-ordinator and administrator, archivist and outworkers. The training courses, co-ordination of slide analysis and part of the slide analysis itself is carried out by Dr. Natalie Danford. All outworkers are science graduates with extensive experience in chromosome analysis.
