      I think it’s what a good scientists should be. You have to want to be curious about the work that you are doing. A scientist has to be inquisitive, asking questions is the best way of finding out information, i.e. I’m A scientist. I’m enthusiastic about my work. It requires long hours and a lot of the time experiments don’t work. You need to be able to love what you are doing to keep going. And fun, because I love having a laugh with people in the lab or with my friends. I enjoy going to gigs, listening to music and playing/watching rugby in my spare time. It is always important to have a life outside of science, so you can appreciate what you do everyday. Hope that answers your question 🙂
