      Hi @qasim3233
      I’ve never worn a white coat! I might buy one when I get my PhD so people believe I’m actually a doctor!

      Hi @qasim3233

      Sometimes! We are meant to wear one all the time for health and safety reasons in case we spill something on ourselves but often we forget. We also wear gloves to keep both ourselves and our samples clean and sometime protective glasses if youre using dangerous susbstances such as acids that could hurt your eyes. It can get quite hot in the summer!

      Hi @qusim3233

      Only when I don’t want to be recognized! 🙂
      I do experiments with people so I don’t have to wear a white coat.
