Biologist careers

A Biologist studies living organisms and their interactions with the environment. You might work in research institutions, universities, or environmental agencies. Biologists focus on understanding biological processes, conducting experiments, and collecting data to advance knowledge in fields such as ecology, genetics, and physiology. You’ll prepare and conduct experiments, analyse results, and publish findings to contribute to scientific understanding.

Biologists play a crucial role in advancing scientific knowledge and addressing environmental challenges. You’ll need to be detail-oriented and have strong analytical skills, with the ability to conduct precise experiments and interpret data. You’ll collaborate with other scientists and communicate your findings to the scientific community and the public.
