An entry-level biochemist studies or performs research on the chemical and biological functions of living things. Biochemistry is, as the name implies, the confluence of biology and chemistry, and involves the study of compounds on a molecular level, meaning your duties often include working in a laboratory setting where you perform analysis with microscopes and specialized equipment. Biochemistry careers exist in a wide variety of sectors: industrial, commercial, and academic. Entry-level biochemists working in academia do so most often in universities, where your responsibilities are to support the research of a senior biochemist, gathering and collating data, performing minor experiments, and providing supplementary research to aid the larger project. You can also find work in the research and development or quality control departments of pharmaceutical or medical device manufacturers, food producers, or government agencies.
| Aspect | Entry Level Biochemist | Laboratory Technician |
|---|---|---|
| Required Credentials | Bachelor's degree in biochemistry, biology, or related field | Associate's degree or relevant certification |
| Work Environment | Research labs, pharmaceutical companies, biotech firms | Clinical, industrial, or research laboratories |
| Employer & Industry Usage | Research and development, academia, biotech industry | Quality control, testing labs, manufacturing |
| Common Search & Comparison | Yes | No |
