Starting from the basics, you should be interested in science, chemistry, biology and other relevant subjects. Only genuine interests can keep you engaged in the seemingly monotonous lab processes. Other than that make sure you're good at handling chemicals and lab equipment, you are detail-oriented, and have the ability to read long contents which shall assist you in possible research roles.
