Sophia C Chandrasekar, MLS(ASCP)CM is a medical laboratory scientist and an illustrator based in the Triangle region of North Carolina.
I began Warbler Works Studio in 2020, as an outlet while working in an 800 bed teaching hospital Core Lab. From there, I've created a slew of comics, stickers, and stationery based on my experiences, and others', of being a medical laboratory professional in today's healthcare landscape. I hope to raise awareness of the laboratory field, as well as create things that can make working in a lab a bit lighter and fun.
I am also a member of the American Society of Clinical Laboratory Science, and currently serve on the Marketing and Communications Committee. There, you can find the Off the Bench podcast, where my co-host Doryan Redding, and I share stories and topics about the scientific, and not so scientific parts of laboratory medicine.
