      i think most scientists think this but i’m not sure. we are all contributing differently and i on some respects we could we are the same. but in my view the scientist involved in medical research or drug development are better because they are looking to advance and improve peoples lives.

      I don’t think that, and especially since I’ve been doing I’m a Scientist: some of these other guys have awesome jobs, and seem to be doing really helpful science. I think that’s why I’m happy to be doing what I’m doing, because it’s using science to help people. In my project, that’s helping people who have pneumonia in a hospital, but other scientists help people in different ways.

      I don’t! I think there are lots of very interesting jobs in science. And probably lots of jobs you could do in the future that we don’t even know about yet. I think the main thing is to try to find something to do that you enjoy and that is useful – that’s why I like my job, but I don’t think that’s unique.
