      I haven’t made any inventions 🙁 Inventions arent really things we do in molecular biology. I guess we sometimes invent new experiments, and then other scientists can use those methods in their experiments. Actually, inventing new experiments is really important as that is how we make sure we are doing the research right and not getting weird results.

      I’m not an inventor either! Although I do find it pretty exciting when there’s a breakthrough on a project – on one of my schemes we managed to create a load of new habitat for some rare bird species without costing anything at all
