Question: What made you want to be a scientist?

I really enjoyed science at school and biology and chemistry were the subjects I did best in so I decided that was the best options to carry on with. I was also really fascinated with worms when i was younger, how they moved, how they ate so I knew I would like to do something with biology in the future! Being at university really helped me focus on what part of science I was most interested in and at the age of 21 I decided that I was most interested in how things develop and reproduce and I have stuck with that ever since! Do you want to be a scientist?
