      I’ve never (thankfully) made any massive explosions or wrecked a lab – I might not have my job anymore if I had. But days in the lab can be very varied, it depends what experiments you are doing. Often one experiment might have long incubation times, so you slot another experiment in the gap. Other days the experiment might need a lot of hands on time, for example working with cells and adding things to them.
