It’s CSI without the crime (or the endless supply of sunglasses). That’s right—biological technicians are the cool kids in the laboratory, setting up and using things like microscopes, test tubes, and centrifuges (the things you put blood samples in that spin really fast) to conduct all kinds of tests and experiments. Then they analyze the data and write reports on what they discovered. As a bio tech, you’ve got to be on your game, because you may be working with weird and dangerous substances. But you just might find cures for diseases while you’re at it! If you like science, math, helping the world, or all three, then this job may have your name written all over it.
