What is a cell biologist?

A cell biologist is a scientist who studies the physiological properties and structure of cells and their interaction with other biological organisms. As a cell biologist, your duties include conducting research, designing laboratory experiments, analyzing experimental data, and writing articles, books, and presentations about your findings. In addition to scientific research, senior cell biologists may also oversee a large lab and have a variety of managerial duties, such as grant writing, teaching, and supervising staff.
