Why We Do This
When we surveyed over 1,500 scientists for The Lab Coat Project, one response stuck with us:
“Being swallowed by a giant lab coat makes you feel like you are dressing up in a costume. It creates a strange imposter syndrome that whispers in your ear... ‘you’re not a real scientist’.”
That feeling hits hardest early on, in your first research lab or in front of a classroom, which is exactly when budgets are tightest. So we made it easier.
