bioscientists
Biology field experts
Bioscientists are researchers who study living organisms and life processes.
The term encompasses scientists working across biology's many branches—molecular biology, genetics, microbiology, ecology, and others.
Bioscientists at the university are developing new cancer treatments.
The singular is bioscientist.
