      Have a look on our profiles for qualifications. Tim has a PhD and so is definitely on top. Pip studied at Oxford which is quite impressive too.

      We’re all at different stages in our careers. The number of papers that you publish in journals is one way of measuring how ‘credited’ a scientist is. I’m the oldest (I think), so I’ve had a few more years to do stuff, but I don’t really do proper research now so the others could have published loads more work by the time they’re my age.
