In many labs I’ve seen, the friction isn’t technical – it’s interpersonal: Technicians stay in their lane. Lab leads translate upwards, if at all. Managers operate on filtered fragments. The result? 🧪 Projects stall for reasons no one can quite name. 📉 Promising data disappears into drafts that never leave the team. ⏱ And months go by without real progress – just activity. You’d think communication is a given in science. But often, it’s the first thing to break – and the last thing people want to talk about. What fascinates me most in my work: Labs don’t need more tools. They need 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 between roles – subtle, built on trust, and completely invisible when it works. #LifeSciences #ScientificConsulting #DrugDiscovery #CELLIMA CELLIMA Scientific Service GmbH

When did weekend work become such an accepted part of life science research, and should it still be so in 2026? In this article, we explore lab culture, hear from scientists about their lived experien...

Laboratory dynamics can change as the age and experience of the principal investigator increase. But there are ways to combat this.

Support, presence, celebration. Even when it's busy. Especially when it's busy.
