      I was studying a molecule that had very interesting health benefits in animals, but we didn’t really know how it worked in cells.
      When trying to figure that out, I found many ways by which it did not work, rather than the way it worked. That took a lot of my time…

      Hmm. Learning a new computer language. I had lots and lots of data and I had to find a way to analyse it. I had to learn two new computer languages, one called R and one called STATA. This helped me alot but also took up loads of my time!!
