π¨βπ¬ stands for science, research, lab work or a man who works as a scientist, and people also use it jokingly when they are experimenting with something. Apple shows a man in safety goggles and a white lab coat holding a green flask with vapor rising from it.

The tone is usually neutral or playful. Students send it about chemistry, physics or biology classes, exams and lab sessions. Researchers, doctors in training and engineers use it to describe their work. In casual chats it often means "I am testing something": a new recipe, a hair mix, a workout plan or a theory about a friend. It can also mean someone is overthinking or analysing a situation in detail. It is less specific than π§ͺ or π¬, which point to the equipment, while π¨βπ¬ points to the person doing the work. The man version is used when the sender is talking about himself or a specific man.
Most often it means you are trying something new or studying for a science subject. "Experimenting in the kitchen π¨βπ¬" is a typical use.
In research, pharma, engineering or tech teams it can label lab updates or test results. It reads as friendly and fine for informal work chats.

No. Many people use it for school science, cooking experiments or any trial and error, not just professional research.
It usually means he is studying, working in a lab or joking that he is trying something out. It is not a romantic signal.
They mean the same thing. π¨βπ¬ shows a man, while π§βπ¬ is the neutral version people pick when they do not want to show gender.
