Molecular Biologist

A Molecular Biologist investigates the molecular mechanisms of biological processes in cells and organisms. You might work in a laboratory, research facility, or university. Molecular Biologists focus on DNA, RNA, proteins, and other biomolecules, conducting experiments and analysing data to understand genetic expression and cellular function. You’ll use various techniques such as PCR, sequencing, and microscopy to study molecular interactions and develop new biological insights.

Molecular Biologists play a crucial role in advancing our understanding of biology and medicine. You’ll need to be detail-oriented, analytical, and proficient with laboratory equipment. You’ll collaborate with other scientists and researchers to ensure the accuracy and reliability of your findings, contributing to the broader scientific community.
