      I have been in science since I finished my Masters degree in Biotechnology. I was initially interested in working in industry. So, I joined a pharmaceutical company as research assistant. During the three years of my stay in the company, I learned invalubale skills. But I decided that I want to do a PhD. My 4 years of PhD were very rewarding and I made some important discoveries. I have been a postdoc (post doctorate researcher) after my PhD (awarded in 2019). Overall, I have almost 8 years experience in scientific research.

    I suppose I’ve been a scientist since I left university, which is 11 years now. But I’ve only been working in science full-time for nearly eight years, since before that I couldn’t get a science job for a while.
