Yes… I’m a university professor… I basically have 3 jobs in one. Firstly, the university employed me on the strength of my track-record as a scientists. Professor are meant to be globally recognised experts in their field. Secondly, I teach student about aspects of chemistry and will supervise research students and fellows. So I’m help to create the next generation of scientists. Finally, I’m expected to participant in managing the university. This I like least!

I love my job. My work focuses on helping people who are struggling to have a baby. I work with IVF clinics and patients to understand why these people are not getting pregnant. I then design clinical tests that can improve their chances of having a healthy baby.

I absolutely loved working in biomedical science, I left my job about 18 months ago and I really miss it. I enjoyed being able to help patients get better, there wasn’t a task that I hated. Some jobs were better than others but I didn’t hate any part of my job. I was very lucky to have found something that I really enjoyed doing.

I enjoy it! I get to teach students and I love when they ask questions that make me think ‘I actually don’t know, let’s go and find out together’. I’m really curious and like to find out new information so it works well for me 😁

I love my job. I’m a medicinal chemist which means I design new molecules to make to test as medicines to treat diseases.
I use computers and my insight to design the molecules. I then make the molecules using organic chemistry and then we test for for activity. Repeat until you have the next wonder drug!
