A good phrase/verb to replace “introduce”












1















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"?

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):




  1. 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.


  2. I won't go into too much description of any of these projects.


  3. 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





    1. He continued to expound on the failings of our educational system.


    2. Expound a law.






    Your sentence:
    I will expound on/run through the responsibilities and skill sets of a bioinformatics researcher.
