Calling wheelchair users who work in wet labs (including in NHS settings) to user-test a new lab coat. Contact UCLEast.labcoats@ucl.ac.uk. Split photo shows a woman in a powered wheelchair with a long royal blue buttoned-up labcoat which stretches down the tops of her feet. It totally covers her lap and her hands are tucked into the pockets.

UCL are looking for UK-based wheelchair-using lab users to test out their design.

Is it easy to take on/off? Comfortable? How're those pockets & fastenings? Any safety concerns? etc.

Contact ucleast.labcoats@ucl.ac.uk for more info.
