Manage episode 292944369 series 2900296
When you picture a microbiologist, what do you imagine? Someone looking through a microscope? Maybe someone in a lab doing research? In your mind, are they wearing a white coat?
Microbiologists work in so many different types of jobs. You might be surprised about some of the places you will find microbiologists working. So, I brought my friend Shelli Nauman on the Joyful Micobe podcast to share the various jobs she has had as a microbiologist.
And though she currently works with infection-causing microbes as a hospital infection preventionist, she still has a deep love for microbes. Listening to her talk about it will help you see how you can appreciate the microbial world and still deal with pathogens on a day-to-day basis.
In this episode, you will learn about…
- How to balance working with pathogens with a love for microbes
- The benefits of doing undergraduate research
- Microbiology career options
- Hospital Infection Preventionist
- Microbiology Researcher
- Water Microbiologist and Lab Technician at the Department of Health
- Food Safety Microbiologist
- Quality Assurance Manager
