What do they do in their lab?

Sorry, this was a badly worded question. I work in a biochemistry lab, we study certain proteins found in the nervous system. I was wondering what others on this particular forum do.

The two scientists I know are chemists.
One works for the EPA and tests materials used by businesses to make sure they meet EPA standards.
The other works for an adhesive company, making new things of a sticky nature.

Yes, many. Some work in the labs, some in the field. Different studies.

I was a Chemist. My wife was a Geneticist. Neither one of us are currently working in science.
I worked in production labs mostly doing QC work. She worked in a university research lab. She worked on several projects and had a few papers published.
I have no idea how this applies to religion.

"Scientist" covers a lot of ground. The trite answer is that we do science. Mostly, we solve puzzles. It's like a game.
I used to reconstruct past climate to study global climate change. Now I study the relationship between climate, environment and their effects on human behavior and the evolution of societies.

What's the cutting edge in human brain bio-chemistry? I think it will be spark the next qualitative shift in the scientific revolution because it will give social scientists the same boost that evolution gave to the biological and life sciences.

I used to study lysosomal proteins in neutrophils. Now I'm in clinical biochemistry. I actually started as a microbiologist.

Dear Citrus Punch,
I'm curious about why you are asking this in the Religion & Spirituality section.
A friend of mine is a chemist and he does chemistry in the lab.

I AM a scientist. I spend most of my time on my computer, running telescopes, reducing data, emailing collaborators, and writing papers - not to mention grants and proposals for money and more telescope time.
It's more fun than it sounds.

I work with astronomers.
They stare at a computer screen 90% of the time.
