Forensic scientists analyse physical evidence and report what it does and does not show. The work is procedurally strict (continuity of evidence, validated methods, and contamination control) because findings may be tested in court. Casework is mostly laboratory-based, with report writing and occasional expert testimony.
Field research technicians collect the data that laboratory and desk-based scientists depend on. That means travelling to sites, operating monitoring equipment, taking samples correctly, and recording conditions accurately. The work is physical and weather-dependent, often seasonal, and frequently based away from home during survey campaigns.

Pharmacologists study how drugs act on the body and how the body handles them, from receptor-level mechanisms through to dosing in patients. The work supports drug discovery, safety assessment, and clinical use, and it is closely bound to regulatory and ethical frameworks. Roles sit in universities, pharmaceutical research, and health services.
