I absolutely love the lab time as well as analyzing the data from an experiment. I also like carrying out techniques and apply my current knowledge to carry through an experiment.
At my site I have never been denied an opportunity to meet with people. Rather, I have just been given different times. In addition, it seems that there is always help and advice no matter who I turn to.
The safety emphasis is so great that it paralyzes most lab activities. In addition, it feels that everything and anything needs to be approved by multiple people. The hypothetical situations brought up seem crazy for small scale experiments, and they further hinder us from making adequate progress.
