More like "Industry" vs "Academia". I love the work at the nonprofit academic lab, but I miss the cleanness, efficiency, and prettiness of the for-profit lab. ๐ฅฒ

Maybe in cGMP labs, my for profit experience definitely looks like the latter image lol
I work in a cleanroom.
It looks more like the bottom picture than I'd like to admit.
I mean, it's not called a tidy room, is it now?
So more like a misnomer room
You can be clean and messy at the same time.
At least that's what my wife tells me
Clean (no particulates) room that is messy (scattered large objects)
I am not seeing the random lunch, which should really really not be here, in the bottom picture. Did the photographer pick it up first?
Lab boss in real life: "see if you can make oatmeal addictive"
Labs for teaching in university students will often look like a much older version of the above. Actual research labs will tend to look like below
labs do look like this, but only when freshly build and before actual research group gets in
Any space*
