I think my biggest personal achievement was finishing my PhD. This was the end of a few years of hard work and I had to make an original contribution to science in order to get the degree.
On the other hand, I hope what I am working on now will be my biggest public achievement or contribution. If we do a good job with the methods we are working on, then we could help other scientists learn more about how some diseases work and also help doctors with diagnosing diseases like cancer. I will be really happy to have worked on something that can help other people like this.
