Algae Biologist
Algae biologists, also known as phycologists, are scientists who study algae, a diverse group of aquatic organisms that can range in size from microscopic single-celled organisms to large, multicellular seaweeds. Algae are important to the environment as they provide food and oxygen for other organisms, and they are also a source of food, fuel, and other products for humans. Algae biologists study the biology, ecology, and evolution of algae, and they use this knowledge to develop new ways to use algae for human benefit.
