      Like anything, if you are reading a lot about the same subject and repeating processes you can get quite tired. But I would never say it is boring. Then finally when you have got some results and can analyse what you have found itis very satisfying!

      No I love my work and I’m really happy with it! I think it’s pretty lucky that I decided to do science and that I enjoy it so much, because when you think about it, I was only 17 when I had to decide what to go and study at uni and that’s quite a big decision!! But I liked science at school so I just went for it! And I remember the first day I actually worked as a proper scientist, I was so happy, I knew I had made the right choice!!
