Of course, dear @Sulfia. If researcher is satisfied with his job, with his research results, especially if these results were applied for the sake of society, one could say that scientific work bring peace of mind.
Dear Sufia,
Yes, if somebody works for the common good and is satisfied with his/her own performance.
Yes, except our DJ who is always creating a restless environment in CU and PU
When we do scientific work for right motives in a congenial environment, and the work is appreciated, we get peace of mind, and a desire to live and work as long as we have life, breath and ability. Have a look at what octogenarians can do...
(As science teachers and profs, so many of the community know us everywhere we go in town, what more can we ask?)

If some body enjoys doing scientific jobs; yes, scientific work brings peace of mind. It may depend upon:
- Basic mind-set;
- Upbringing;
- Education;
- Training;
- Environment;
- Climatic conditions;
- People around;
- Work culture;
- Nature of scientific job;
- and many more factors................

All the good work, made with passion, can bring peace of mind.
Yes, not only scientific work!
Any positive and constructive work for public good/welfare that gives you satisfaction is very essential for mental peace.
The pace of mind comes from the pleasure or joy of our daily activities. Science can be one of the means. The peace of mind is a very particular state of happiness and joy that does not produce laughing or clapping. It appears that the peace of mind is one of the features of wisdom.
Yes, more scientific disciplines work bring science and peace, but in some cases it brings science and does not bring peace, such as scientific innovations in the production of weapons, especially non-traditional.
Yes, Of course, Scientific work can bring peace of mind. But must be followed some conditions.
E.g. Some covetable recipe must be required after scientific field study with entertainment.
Indeed it will bring peace as long as the work is applied to meet its purpose in society or augment knowledge, and only when the outside space is conducive for the inner peace to flourish, stabilize and continue smoothly. If the outside space is turned upside down by social and political upheavals, the presumed peace will disappear in to oblivion, this is because a scientist although engaged in a particular knowledge search activity, is part of a social domain, who does not exist as a singularity of the social structure.
Scientific work, alone, does not bring peace of mind & may destabilize the scientist. What brings relative peace of mind is when real scientific hard work produces tangible positive results that are well-appreciated & justly evaluated by others.
It depends on the scientist! as Peace comes from within.
.Being "at peace" is the opposite of being stressed or anxious.Peace of mind is generally associated with bliss, happiness and contentment.
Maybe yes, maybe no! ,Depends on ambition, motives and values of the researcher.
"A mind at peace, a mind centered and not focused on harming others, is stronger than any physical force in the universe." - Wayne Dyer
Of course, in my opinion, if the research likes his work, have a suitable condition of work and lovely colleagues. All these will be bring peace of mind.
Peace of mind is a state of mental and emotional calmness, with no worries, fears or stress. In this state, the mind is quiet, and you experience a sense of happiness and freedom.

Yes,
Scientific work contributes to strength the light power on the global knowledge of the humanity. It gives us a peace of mind.
Yes, Marković G. Đoko,
The peace of mind is the consequences of pleasures of scientists in their all normal work and satisfaction along with scientific research and creative work.
“I Think Therefore I Am”?
René Descartes
http://quotes.yourdictionary.com/articles/who-said-i-think-therefore-i-am.html
Scientific work does bring peace of mind. Nonetheless, please allow me to highlight the following:
Scientists and researchers are the most recent figures of tragic people, for we scientists and researchers love problems! Moreover, we define our lives in and around problems - problems, challenges, puzzles, hurdles...
This dual aspect lives within us all. We do love peace of mind, and yet, strive for problems and challenges.
When saying "tragic", let's just think about Aeschylus, Sophocles, and Euripides. And last, but not least, let's take into account Nietzsche's "The Origins of Tragedy".
This question is also related to the earlier post on mood and emotjonal behaviour, pleasantries on achievement of objectives, including scientific work that is creative in nature.
When engaged in scientific work of creative nature the scientist is under stress or may be chronic stress, which depletes his body of energy and vital reserves.The body under stress produces hormones which have a long-term weakening effect on the body which can lead to degenerative diseases.
Strain induced by Stress appears in the form of misbalance in adrenal hormones. Abnormal levels of adrenal hormones are a frequent undiagnosed cause of emotional and mental distress. Adrenal hormones exert a profound influence on the body's carbohydrate, protein, and fat metabolism, immune response, thyroid function, cardiovascular health, and overall resistance to stress.
Stress hormones are molecules that travel throughout the body delivering messages to other cells about our level of pain. When stress hormones are out of balance we may feel exhausted, depressed, have poor immune function, sexual problems, and get fat even though we may not eat much.
How much pleasure does the scientist derive when he has achieved his objective, and when the stress is removed while the signs of strains disappear can be estimated from the emotional arousal. It can be measured from the level of pleasure related hormones that shoots up and from entailing rejoicing that he or she entertains.
Dr. Mirza Arshad Ali Beg
Scientists do work mostly in groups. Then, the main problem which may occur is "happiness" of all members of research team. In this case, the role of group leader is very important. "Most successful group leaders aim for a balance between a healthy team spirit and ambitious but realistic output goals." Then, peace of mind is so close!

I don't know in other countries, but here, In general, when an assistant professor (or a researcher) who is on the 'tenure' track barely has a peace of mind. Until they get their tenures, they can probably have some degree of 'peace of mind'.
yes, but there are other ways of getting peaceful mind. if u are motivated scientifically, a scientific project can make u peaceful; but peace is an element having different interpretations for different people
