I wanted to be a medical doctor, but when I started university I studied lots of different subjects, biology, chemistry, physics, philosophy, literature. I really enjoyed answering questions about how things work instead of actually fixing things that are broken.
I was really fascinated by the cell, and decided I would rather spend my days in the lab answering questions about how the body works in disease, and developing cures, than helping patients on a day-to-day basis.
