I work in bioinformatics applied to crop breeding/plant science.

    It's fun, while I say I'm a molecular biologist I'm also a bit of a generalist as my project became quite broad medical applications (I want to say some more but because it's rare disease it's nearly impossible without making myself a very easy google search away). Working with a rare disease is great, if you can meet patients and advocates you have a connection that's great motivation.

      I can't decide if I want to go through with a PhD, but I'm really interested in algae and its industrial applications. Is industrial biochem a thing?

          I think algae is the future of CO2 capture and could be valuable in reestablishing manufacturing in the US. Luxury gay space Chlamydomonadales/Chroococcales.

        Yep, biotech is a big field. Look into synthetic biology as a field as well. Depending on where you are a PhD is a big commitment.
