      I am working in a research institute, particularly georgia institute of technology. We have a bunch of buildings in a green campus with a lot of laboratories in them. Our building is one of the oldest, I’d like it more if it was a bit busier. I have an office and a lab bench, I am writing you from my office that has a great view of downtown Atlanta. 🙂

      I work in an office with 4 other PhD students. It is sometimes fun, sometime quiet. I also work with birds who are kept in an aviary near my office.

      The office itself is in the centre of St.Andrews which is a lovely town, I am in one of the oldest buildings in the university which is really beautiful. All the extensions that have been made to the building since it was built mean that inside my building is like a maze. I think the staircases move when no one’s looking. Either way I get lost a lot in here. All part of the fun!?

      I work in a big University building in Portsmouth. Sometimes I work at Marwell Zoo when we are working with the monkeys, and sometimes I work in laboratories with human participants. I also work closely with an anatomist colleague who works in an anatomy laboratory, where we dissect human and primate tissue. None of the specimens have been killed for our work (human or otherwise!), but instead have been donated for science.
