How to hire a freelance molecular biologist
The high complexity of a living cell remains one of the most interesting mysteries in biology. Molecular biology is the branch of biology that studies living beings and their systems at the microscopic level. The structure and functioning of the DNA, the RNA and protein synthesis are the main focus of molecular biologists and the cell is their main unit of analysis.
Understanding how organs within a cell work together enables scientists to understand the functioning of organs in the body.
What does a molecular biologist do?
Molecular biologists ultimately try to improve our understanding of cell functioning, a broad field that still has much to be explored on the molecular level.
The study of biological molecules, which makes physical functioning of the body possible and constitute the language through which cells communicate, is a crucial part of molecular biology.
Inside a cell, there is so much to be investigated, including its organelles, such the Golgi apparatus, lysosomes, the nucleus and the endoplasmic reticulum. Each of them present a myriad of functions, which have not been completed studied.
Exploration and analyses of the concepts that explain cellular functioning are the focus of molecular biology scientists, and they usually also write about the topic for scientific journals, websites and technical reports.
The molecules that constitute the chemical structure of the cell are also studied in depth by molecular biologists, including:
- DNA and RNA
- Proteins
- Lipids
- Carbohydrates
The lives of many synthetic biology experts are dedicated to decoding the numerous reactions and operations that take place inside different cells, within different living organisms.
This profession requires cutting-edge technology and specialized laboratory equipment in order to explore the molecular world of cells and organelles. Typical workplaces for these professionals include universities, research institutions, laboratory settings and the pharmaceutical industry.
In the laboratory environment, molecular biologists tend to work in collaboration with professionals in the fields of biochemistry, biophysics, genetics and bioengineering.
Why work with a freelance biologist?
Molecular biologists are so important for science in general, since their concepts can usually be translated into medicine, healthcare, biology, wildlife, environment, drug development and food industry. Thus, the theories explored by these experts are usually applied to a variety of fields and to daily life.
Apart from dedicating their lives to laboratory discoveries and biological research, most experts in molecular biology are also involved in teaching, workshops and presentations. They usually teach medical, dental, chemistry and biomedical engineering students, as well as many other professions.
The applications of molecular biology are many, from disease prevention and treatment to genetic screening and analysis, from vaccines to agriculture, from wildlife conservation to pollution issues, from cloning to protein expression.
The increased understanding of the human genome has opened a lot of doors into molecular genetics, including population analysis and risk profiling in relation to health and disease, taxonomy issues, identification of species and much more.
How much does it cost to hire a biologist?
In order to hire a biologist, the hourly price starts at 30-40 USD. Recent post-graduates tend to charge less, while experienced lecturers and professors have a higher cost per hour.
Instead of paying for each consultancy hour, you can define the total price that you are willing pay and work out a total fee for the entire project.
How to write an effective job to hire a freelance molecular biologist?
Finding synthetic biology consulting online is a simple and easy task. All you need to do is provide important details on your project, according to the following topics:
- Project description or scope of work: give a general ideal of what needs to be accomplished.
- Duration of the project: when it needs to be accomplished.
- By when you need to hire: how much time do you have until the project starts.
- Budget: how much you can spend on the project (on an hourly basis or project basis).
- Skills required: what kind of experience and areas of expertise are you looking for?
Once the job is posted, you will be able to find the best freelance molecular biologist for your specific requirements and payment is only sent once you are satisfied with the deliverables.
A freelance molecular biologist may offer the best opportunity for professional collaboration in order to move forward with your project.
