A good phrase/verb to replace “introduce”
I am giving a presentation to introduce the career path of bioinformatics researchers to a group of Ph.D. students.
In the presentation abstract I have:
I will [introduce] the responsibilities and skill sets of a bioinformatics researcher.
I feel the word "introduce" is inappropriate. I am also considering "dig into".
What are some alternative phrases to express that I'll "discuss the role in detail"?

Welcome to EL&U. One of the expectations of Stack Exchange is that you demonstrate your initial research efforts. For example, what does a thesaurus say about possible synonyms for introduce? I strongly encourage you to take the sitie tour and review the help center for additional guidance.

You may want to consider "outline." See the definition below:
If you outline an idea or a plan, you explain it in a general way (source).
However, the verb to outline is about explaining something in general, not discussing something in detail.
So, perhaps, to go into something is more appropriate:
If you go into something, you describe or examine it fully or in detail (source):
I will not go into these texts in any depth as I am sure that many of
you will want to comment on various provisions.
I won't go into too much description of any of these projects.
I will not go into any substantive analysis of this draft resolution.
So, I suggest the following: "I'd like to go into description of the responsibilities and skill sets of a bioinformatics researcher" (in case you really want to pay much attention to the issue).

I'll suggest the word expound on/upon. Associated synonyms are explain, run through, define, put across, clarify etc.
Expound (verb) https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/expound
to give a detailed explanation of something Or to explain by setting forth in careful and often elaborate detail
He continued to expound on the failings of our educational system.
Expound a law.
Your sentence:
I will expound on/run through the responsibilities and skill sets of a bioinformatics researcher.
