      For me, it is the ability to find things out that nobody has ever seen before and do something new. You do feel like you are pushing science further forward, every day.

      I think meeting other curious minded people and finding out what they think about the world is absolutely brilliant

      The most interesting thing is to be doing something that will eventually help us to fight against the disease, and has an impact on society. It is also very exhilarating doing something new, that only you are doing, and nobody has done before. Discovering a new gene regulating a process, or a new mutation that causes a disease is very exciting and rewarding.
