As well as living and breathing life science on a daily basis here at Hello Bio, we’ve also realised that we really want to wear science and hang it on our walls! When we exhibited at SfN last year, we loved all of the science-inspired art and jewellery exhibitors there so much that we wanted to share their amazing work on our blog...
We really do love to have a laugh here at Hello Bio. And as a team of scientists, it’s usually the case that we’re laughing about something science-related.
For the last few months, we’ve been sharing the science memes and jokes that have made us chuckle the most over on our social media channels. So, we thought we’d bring them all together into one blog post and share them with you!
Some are clever, some entirely relatable, and some are just, well, pretty silly actually – we hope that they raise a smile and brighten your day.

We know how difficult it is starting a PhD, or as a post-doc in a new lab. There is much to remember, new protocols, new systems and new techniques to get to grips with. We asked a sample of researchers from a variety of labs - including PhD students, post-docs and lab heads to tell us about their experiences, and the mistakes that are most commonly made. Here's what they said...
