      There isn’t like one person who was most influential to me, and to be honest I always feel like I don’t know much about all the famous scientists there have been.

      I’m ofter inspired influenced by the other scientists I work with. I’ll see someone who might be really good at explaining something, and think ‘I want to explain stuff as clearly as that’, or someone else who’s working on something really important/valuable, and that will make me check that what I’m working on is important too.

      So, not really any one person.
