infrastructure, we ask the following research question:RQ: How do technology infrastructures shape problem-solving practices in STEM labs? MethodsWe collected data from three interdisciplinary STEM laboratories from three differentuniversities in North America. Over a period of 16 months, we conducted 27 interviews (19Zoom interviews and 8 on-site in-person interviews), attended 26 lab meetings, and shadowedthree lab members in-person. Remote interviews and meeting observations began in thebeginning of the Covid-19 pandemic in Spring 2020.
