      I love the freedom to come up with an idea and then test it. Everyday we work at the very edge of what is known/not known and that is so exciting! When I discover something new I am the only person ever to have existed who knows this new thing and then I get to go and share it with everyone else!

      The thrill of discovery, hopefully making the world a better place, and working with super nice people

      I love discovering new things and, with my current job, being able to help the efforts surrounding the pandemic. My team sequences positive samples in the UK, looking to see how covid is spreading and to check for new variants. So that’s quite fulfilling.
