      Hi Shannon,

      No way!

      Science has kept me busy and I am never bored which is great! It is full of questions that need to be answered and you add you piece of findings/knowledge to a large jigsaw puzzle trying to understand how the world around us works.

      Also you get to travel and meet other scientist 🙂

    Hi,

    I am too keen to carry on researching, which is what keeps me pumped up! I could possibly move in an industrial environment which might be less stressful than being in academia, however I’m too passionate about science to let go. You get to change and control the behavior of bacteria in different conditions, and make them produce stuff for us, which is what makes it a cool area to work in!
