      Hi Kathryn! My best discovery working as a scientist was when I managed to grow skin from stem cells. It was so exciting because we fed the stem cells in the first couple of days then 30 days later they’d just created this skin structure by themselves! Because I’ve just started working as a scientist though hopefully I’ll have some more discoveries to tell you about soon! However, you don’t need to be a scientist to make a discovery! I was working in Greece a couple of years ago at a scuba diving school and one day me and my friend found the skeleton of a really big fish! It was very exciting and we felt like explorers! What’s your best discovery/find??
