    i think you may have got in a bit of a muddle

    a prescription is the recommendation of a qualified clinician of a course of drugs (medical doctor, dentist etc...)

    at stem cell researcher is a translational research scientist, they have little or no interaction with patients and therefore would never be asked to write a prescription

    stem cell work requires mostly genetic manipulation techniques - look for courses around molecular genetics or biotechnology
