lab partner

Shares your beaker

A lab partner is someone assigned to work with you on experiments or projects in a science class.

The pairing is usually for a semester or school year, creating a collaborative relationship where both students share equipment, data, and responsibility for results: My lab partner and I dissected a frog together.

The term sometimes extends to research settings beyond classrooms.
