Talents
Medical Officers Talents are greatly varied between genetics, attending to the crew, and making biological weapons.
The Xenologist Specialization helps immensely with collecting Unidentified Genetic Materials, identifying them into Genes and reduces the chance to Taint genes when combining different types to nearly zero. It also unlocks a recipe for the Advanced Gene Splicer which allows the user to insert 2 genes, instead of just 1 like the regular Gene Splicer.
The Medic Specialization is focused entirely on keeping the crew alive and in good health. It grants many buffs increasing the effectiveness of various Medical Items, makes Assistants a tad more useful, and allows the Medical Officer to save dying crewmates from certain death as long as he stays near them, unless they get crushed by the pressure.
The Chemist Specialization gives the Medical Doctors lots of options for both healing and unhealing by unlocking a recipe for the Europabrew which greatly increases the vulnerability to Acid Burns of the target, many recipes for acid weapons which can take advantage of that vulnerability and recipes for the Combat Stimulant which heals many Afflictions and the powerful Endocrine Booster which grants the user a random talent from an another Job. It also unlocks a recipe for the Advanced Syringe Gun which is a substantial upgrade over the regular Syringe Gun due to having twice the ammo capacity, and a built-in Health Scanner HUD.

- Dr. Submarine and Self-care also increases the side effect damage from medicines like Broad-spectrum Antibiotics.
- Gene Harvester's effect will trigger only the medic is the first character with a looting talent to open the creature's inventory.
- This means it can not be used multiple times with different medics with the same talent.
- Genetic Genius only decreases the chance to taint when combining different gene types, not the chance to taint when combining two of the same type to increase the quality (refining).
- Since the base chance to taint when combining is 100%, this talent is the only way to get combined genes without tainting them, though the chance will be 1%.
- Stayin' Alive increases the chance for CPR to instantly remove Oxygen Low from a character by 20%, not the amount of oxygen regained per pump.
- The bonus does not apply to the character who took the talent, but it can be received from another medic who took the talent.
- It does not stack with itself, but it does stack with Don't Die on Me!.
- Don't Die on Me! doubles the medic's chance to instantly remove Oxygen Low while performing CPR, and stops their CPR targets from suffocating no matter how low their medical skill is.
