Question: do u teach other people what you do?

Yes, I teach other scientists ,undergraduates and hopefully I’ll soon get to go into schools and talk about my work as well.

Scientists mainly tell each other what they are doing by writing scientific papers which explain their experiments, by giving presentations or displaying posters at conferences.

I’ve lucky enough give a lecture to some undergraduate students about my work which was quite scary to begin with – they can be a bit of a tough crowd – but by the end it actually became quite fun.
