Lab Technicians vs. Managers | working in a lab | my job as a lab manager 🧫 🧪

[@Biomeducated]

Very insightful, Bronte! Nice to meet you. Subbed! I was a Research Associate (not assistant) in biotech with a M.Sc in Biomedical Science, before taking on a PhD 3 years ago, in order to go back to biotech on scientist level. Greetings from Belgium!

[@brontefletcher23]

Very nice to meet you, thanks for the support! Congratulations on your endeavors as well!

There are professional master degrees in laboratory management, rare to find but they do exist. It's a combination of the business aspect of a lab and the lab work itself. I'm enrolling next year after finishing my Bs in CLS.

[@kaorisaito9267]

can you please breakdown the differences between lab tech I, lab tech II and lab tech III? also, what differences are there between lab techs/RA/lab managers in academia vs industry?

[@brontefletcher23]

Levels of lab techs are based on experience. Lab tech I are usually entry level, while level II and III techs have a higher skill level. You will probably be seeing these levels perform tasks that are of greater skill level. They may also be participating in research projects on top of their usual activities. The term research assistant and lab technician are used interchangeably at times. A research assistant can be found helping in research projects, clerical and administrative duties. Lab technicians perform perform a variety of tasks in the lab setting, while maintaining equipment, sterility and keeping the lab organized. Lab managers oversea the lab entirely. They are in charge of understanding what projects are occurring, ensuring quality standards, reviewing protocols, staffing, and securing that the lab is running efficiently.

[@sitimaeyam]

We don't have "Manager Lab" in my country but I think we really need that. When ure telling abt ur responsibility to ur team, I believe they would be super sad when ure leaving🥺

[@sirXlove]

I just so like your day in a life ...fan here😚awesome mgr...♥️ur how to be💞 can relate to your busy day I've been in the same seat for a decade or more in a 500+ bed facility but I quit few yrs ago after the passing of my dad and mom. So inspired again to start anew from Asia moving to US as a starting MLS. Thanks for sharing experiences that makes you so lovely and that switching things was very me . Hope to meet you one day in a circle we are in and who knows I might be one of your techs in the future 😅😊💪Unsung hero 👍 ♥️Kudos beautiful lab mgr.

[@brontefletcher23]

I am sorry about the passing of your parents, your thoughts are with me

[@gabrielareyes168]

[@jinyushan]

love your smile

[@shahabazsiddiqui1310]

Dear please Suggest if any vacancy available on your site.

[@Sultanivy]

I just watched the entire video and I love you.

[@brontefletcher23]

Awe thank you! ❤️❤️❤️

[@udaysinghgurjar7003]

Super mam.ji

[@cnsisow]

What is above a lab manager in academia? Does promotion end there?

[@brontefletcher23]

Depends on the company and how you look at it. you can move forward in being a director or shareholder in a company

[@cramsa]

I am a lab tech now but my friend told me about a lab management position but I feel WAY UNDER QUALIFIED because I don’t have a college degree.

[@brontefletcher23]

Hmm this can be a tricky situation, but I do believe those without a college degree can work their way up in the system. I always tell my technicians if they want to be considered for something higher to never give up

[@estelamino6356]

PLEASE talk about specimen processor requirements..???

[@brontefletcher23]

What types of specimens?

[@NoorUllahkhan-v6l]

[@darkmage4050]

hi there bronte! I'm an upcoming university student and majoring in chemistry i just wanted to ask somethings are there laboratory jobs where even with lots of experience or if you worked for a long time you wouldn't end up being a manager or something like a boss/leader i guess ? or like an advanced position but still your more focus on i dunno research or science or something more technical like that rather then managing people ? its just that i dont see myself as the type of person that would fit him to be a manager or you know the one who inspires people i guess lol i guess im more of a support sorry if this sounds stupid XD its more that my goal is actually to be a scientist in R&D at a company or something like government research im okay if that dosent happen though as long as im in something more technical its just i dont think im the maneger type of person ^^' but if it happens ill just do it lol

[@brontefletcher23]

So you are asking if there are positions available other than being a manager?

[@darkmage4050]

Yes exactly like dealing more with science rather then managing people if this makes sense ?

[@santhoshinimunganda5529]

Iam a student of B. Sc microbiology how can I get job as a lab technician...

[@brontefletcher23]

Hi, where are you looking? Have you tried applying around or using a job recruiter to help?

[@ushagurav7367]

Laboratory manager ke liye education kya chahiye mam

[@NoorUllahkhan-v6l]

Hello 🤗

[@Hamzakhan-xp7eh]

Mam i watched every video i am student of bachelor of science in biotechnology but tell me about i am also interested in laboratory technician jobs so which book is important for laboratory and give me advice please

[@brontefletcher23]

Hi, I am unsure about a good book about laboratory technician jobs. The internet has some good advice on that. I don't think you have to buy a book about lab technician jobs. If you want a lab technician I would apply to labs around you, a lot of the time they have a job title "lab technician or entry level technician" jobs out there.

[@Hamzakhan-xp7eh]

@@brontefletcher23 yes,mam i want to laboratory technician.mam i have also a professional degree about laboratory but we want practical i am doing laboratory little bit exm,pcr,DNA extraction etc

[@pradeep14bt]

How much salary you get as Lab manager? You can raply the average salary for this job at your place

[@brontefletcher23]

Varies with what state your in, what qualifications you have, degrees, experience, etc. Average I have seen is between $55 - $70,000. This of course is what I have experienced, for others it can be different

[@pradeep14bt]

@@brontefletcher23 Thanks for reply

[@Tessoh897]

I wish to have a lab manager like you, who can understand people's need.

[@brontefletcher23]
