- Microbiologists study microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, algae, fungi, and some types of parasites. They try to understand how these organisms live, grow, and interact with their environments.
Duties
Microbiologists typically do the following:
• Plan and conduct complex research projects, such as improving sterilization procedures or developing new drugs to combat infectious diseases
• Perform laboratory experiments that are used in the diagnosis and treatment of illnesses
• Supervise the work of biological technicians and other workers and evaluate the accuracy of their results
• Isolate and maintain cultures of bacteria or other microorganisms for study
• Identify and classify microorganisms found in specimens collected from humans, plants, animals, or the environment
• Monitor the effect of microorganisms on plants, animals, other microorganisms, or the environment
• Review literature and the findings of other researchers and attend conferences
• Prepare technical reports, publish research papers, and make recommendations based on their research findings
• Present research findings to scientists, nonscientist executives, engineers, other colleagues, and the public
Many microbiologists work in research and development conducting basic research or applied research. The aim of basic research is to increase scientific knowledge. An example is growing strains of bacteria in various conditions to learn how they react to those conditions. Other microbiologists conduct applied research and develop new products to solve particular problems. For example, microbiologists may aid in the development of genetically engineered crops, better biofuels, or new vaccines.
Microbiologists use computers and a wide variety of sophisticated laboratory instruments to do their experiments. Electron microscopes are used to study bacteria, and advanced computer software is used to analyze the growth of microorganisms found in samples.
It is increasingly common for microbiologists to work on teams with technicians and scientists in other fields, because many scientific research projects involve multiple disciplines. Microbiologists may work with medical scientists or molecular biologists while researching new drugs, or they may work in medical diagnostic laboratories alongside physicians and nurses to help prevent, treat, and cure diseases.
The following are examples of types of microbiologists:
Bacteriologists study the growth, development, and other properties of bacteria, including the positive and negative effects that bacteria have on plants, animals, and humans.
Clinical microbiologists perform a wide range of clinical laboratory tests on specimens collected from plants, humans, and animals to aid in detection of disease. Clinical and medical microbiologists whose work involves directly researching human health may be classified as medical scientists.
Environmental microbiologists study how microorganisms interact with the environment and each other. They may study the use of microbes to clean up areas contaminated by heavy metals or study how microbes could aid crop growth.
Industrial microbiologists study and solve problems related to industrial production processes. They may examine microbial growth found in the pipes of a chemical factory, monitor the impact industrial waste has on the local ecosystem, or oversee the microbial activities used in cheese production to ensure quality.
Mycologists study the properties of fungi such as yeast and mold. They also study the ways fungi can be used to benefit society (for example, in food or the environment) and the risks fungi may pose.
Parasitologists study the life cycle of parasites, the parasite-host relationship, and how parasites adapt to different environments. They may investigate the outbreak and control of parasitic diseases such as malaria.
Public health microbiologists examine specimens to track, control, and prevent communicable diseases and other health hazards. They typically provide laboratory services for local health departments and community health programs.
Virologists study the structure, development, and other properties of viruses and any effects viruses have on infected organisms.
Many people with a microbiology background become high school teachers or postsecondary teachers.

After covid vaccine microbiologist will become the most earning job
A little bit risky job even depends on the area you work
@@saisree2239 really ?
And you got this information from?
@@novaduh I'm a msc microbiology student
@@saisree2239 You're a student, but not working in the field? Righttttttt. So what're you gonna be working in a BSL3 or BSL4? Because outside of that "most risky job" I think not. I'd say the doctors and nurses are in a more "risky job" since their dealing with the infected. All you would be dealing with is an agar plate with specimens on it, decked with full PPE gear, in a biosafety cabinet. Yah, "most risky" idk about that.
I am a QC microbiologist, bachelors in biology.
Entry level positions will center around QC in manufacturing expect 45k-60k. It is a misconception for many science lab jobs to be in research and development. Those occupations require years of experience or higher education of a masters and higher. RnD is usually the end goal for microbiologist/science careers.
Quality control and environmental monitoring is the kind of job you will likely obtain with just bachelors education with a lab setting.
I made a video about the daily tasks of a QC micro tech making around 45k if anyone is interested. I'm now a microbiologist II with more experience about a lab QA/QC career.
Some great points. Seems like a cool occupation.
may I know from what country are you working?
@@rushii4299 I work in the United States
There’s gotta be better opportunities with a bachelors if department of labor says you can earn up to 112,000 if you land a federal job. Median salary on department of labor website is 80K
@@jessemoe727 field is huge, you can do qc micro for food, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals. Entry level is about 45k then averaging about 60k.
I got a new job this year entry level at a gene therapy company making 100kish, but I would not have gotten that job without prior experience.
Definitely high compensation positions but don't expect to get it right after college.
I actually also got an offer at a contract gene therapy place with technically a higher title than I have now, but it wasn't "name brand" and the compensation was around 75k for the micro II role, I live in NY btw.
i'm interested in microbiology, but i'm not sure i want to make it a career, my goal is to do everything i can think of, medical labs, biofuels, and bio engineering yeasts, bacteria, algae, and perhaps fungi, i've realized their importance in waste management as well, and i want to build systems so people can starve the medical sector of money, and make it easier for people to do their own labs, make their own biofuels, and medicines, and with the advent of the 3d printer, i think that might be possible. i've also realized how healthy it is to eat fermented foods, and how easy it is to take an ordinary cabbage, and turn it into something really healthy that could heal someones gut or even prevent sickness.
I just wanna state something...if u have interest in it then do go for it...AND BELIEVE the sky's the limit🌷

If being financially stable is important to you I highly recommend not perusing a career that has anything lab related.
Pay is low compared to most other STEM fields.
Engineers, Software developers, pharmacists, all make alot more money. If money is a important factor to you it will probably iritate you a couple of years into your career when you're making $55,000 and engineers with the same level of experience are making $90,000.
