      I became a scientist because I am a very curious person and I love to lear new things, and scientists get to lear new stuff all the time!

      I do have time to spend with my husband, but sometimes I do have to work late nights and weekends… and no kids yet!

      I became a scientists because like Isabel I am really curious! I like learning new things but I am also curious to see if ideas that I have about things we don’t know are right or wrong. Doing science gives you the chance to learn lots of new stuff but also come up with things and explanations and test if they are right!

      It is all very hard work and it can get very busy. I do have time to spend with my partner and do other things that I love, like watching movies and dancing and reading and going out. But like Isabel said, sometimes we have to work late or work on weekends. We do get flexible and long holidays though:)

      And no, I don’t have kids yet!
