     If you' re considering a career in academia, or a job in a lab, previous lab experience is considered important. Most bioscience students in the UK get around 3-9 hours of lab time per week, But that' s not enough.

     There are a few places out there that offer paid internships (实习工作) in labs, but getting a work placement is tough. I'm a biochemistry student and have applied to several work placements, but in spite of my good grades, I was turned down by all of them. When I asked for personal feedback (反馈意见), I was usually told I lacked lab experience. Like many internships you need experience in order to get that experience.

     If you miss out on organized schemes, you can apply to individual labs requesting a summer work placement. But most labs don't reply. If you' re particularly lucky, a couple of academics get back to you to say either that they do not accept undergraduates (大学本科生), or that their lab has no more available spaces.

     Louis Freeland-Haynes, a Cambridge University biology student, who was able to find a summer work placement at a molecular biology (分子生物学)  lab  at  Edinburgh  University,  says,  "The experience gave me motivation and enthusiasm for the subject as most teaching labs restrict the amount of equipment you work with."

     But most of us are not as lucky. Things need to change. Science internships need to be accessible to a wide range of students, including those that do not have experience and do not have perfect grades. We need to give more people a chance to succeed in science—not just for the benefit of those students, but to progress scientific work and the benefits science brings to us all. Science students should be encouraged to experiment and learn through experiments. This can only be done if researchers and the scientific community can make lab internships more accessible.
