What do you enjoy most about working in the lab and what are some of the challenges you face?
I enjoy working in the lab because it is a very routine process, but every now and then you find something in an experiment that makes you think, “That’s funny!” and may lead to finding out something that no-one has found before. The challenges are part of the enjoyment! Finding out better ways to do things, keeping within budgetary constraints, keeping enthusiastic when experiments don’t go as planned.
