      Yes – its always nice when you have an idea about something and it turns out you were right all along! Its easy to say you are right, but when another scientist does an experiment and also agrees with you then its even better. It doesn’t happen all the time though!

      Yes I have. I had a theory and some data that I presented to a group of scientists at a conference and since then some other scientists have found similar results. It’s great when other people find similar things to you, and even better when you did it first!

      Yes, a group of scientists who work in the same field as I am are watching closely what I do.
