== [[Tabletop Games]] ==
* ''[[Warhammer 40,000]''{{"'}}s Fabius Bile wears a lab coat as an obvious marker of his nature as a genius mad scientist. Given that he spends much of his time involved in gruesome surgical experiments or mixing up dangerous alchemical elixirs, it's also of practical use. Of course, this being Warhammer 40k, and Fabius being an amoral monster in league with the Infernal Powers, said labcoat is made from stitched together human skins.
 
== [[Video Games]] ==
* Doctor Hojo of ''[[Final Fantasy VII]]'' is never seen without his labcoat. His rival, Doctor Hollander, wears an identical coat in the [[Crisis Core|prequel]]. It's used to establish their [[Mad Scientist]] status and highlight the madness in their scientific endeavors.
* In ''[[The Last Remnant]]'', Rush's parents both wear these. The pair are some of the most well-known scientists studying Remnants in the Academy.
* Bowman Jeanne of ''[[Star Ocean: theThe Second Story]]'' wears one when in his pharmacy, and retains it if he joins the party. His special attacks are also themed around pills and medicine to further illustrate his association with this field.
* In ''[[Day of the Tentacle]]'', when Hoagie hires himself as Red Edison's assistant, he is told to "grab his labcoat and get to work", even though the only thing going on in Red's lab is simple mechanic work and Red himself isn't wearing one. (The labcoat figures into a puzzle where it's used to make a kite.)
* Naked Snake in ''[[Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater]]'' gets one in order to infiltrate the soviet's weapon laboratories. Guards will be completely fooled by it as long as Snake doesn't start doing suspicious things like crawling around, but other scientists will immediately trigger the alarm if they see his face.
