      I haven’t invented anything, nor am I working on an invention. I wish I was. Mainly I write maths and computer programs. That’s the closest I’ve got to an invention I guess.
      Maybe one day. Until then, I’ll keep dreaming

      I’ve invented some ways to make hydrogen better. Probably not quite good enough to get me on Dragons Den though! I guess it’s easy to make something new, but it’s much harder to make something useful.

      Yeah, I personally do more understanding than making things… friends of mine invented a cool way of making brains totally see-through though. Literally like glass. It’s awesome-looking and useful. There’s a little video here:

      I’d not call them inventions, but I do create new computer systems for people. They are made with methods and code that isn’t new though, but they work in a new way for new people.

      No inventions, just new insights and more understanding of how our immune system copes with disease.
