Hi Ash,

Thanks for your question!

My main driving force to get into science was my willingness to research which is fueled by curiosity to learn. Also, the fact that research helps the public interest, that made me even more eager to get into science!

Role models were my highschool biology teacher who managed to explain things in a simplified way which proves tricky when you cannot see what actually happens inside the cell and you need to visualise it. Also, the guys that discovered DNA Francis and Crick were my inspiration as their unstoppable enthusiasm and motivation led them to one of the biggest discoveries of molecular Biology.
