  Not necessarily. To work in the lab you will need a science or math background.
  There is however a large research arm that deals with social sciences and community engagement and you can still conduct research in that area. For this you don’t need to do a biology or chemistry course. This arm of research is actually what is responsible for such forums as this that helps scientists share findings of the research to the community.
