      Hi Jamie,

      one of my friends is sitting here and just started laughing and said “is that seriously a question???? how rude!!!” …so …eh…yeah I do!! But I know what you mean some scientists have a name for being really kinda loser-ish and not having mates. Some scientists can be quite eccentric but most have friends! 🙂

      Hi Jamie. Yes, I have friends. I play board games, and sports, and online games. For some weird reason I have more lawyer friends than any other job.

      Hi jamieingham! Funny question! Do you think scientists are too nerdy to have friends?? LOL. I have lots of friends. Friends from growing up, new friends from places I’ve moved, and even conference friends who I’ve only met through going to science conferences!! So yes!!!

      How rude, lol! I have plenty of friends both scientists and non-scientists. I have childhood friends and my best buddies that I see at least once a week.
