Various things have kept me interested in science through the years. When i was a medical student I took part in a project where we were identifying a particular strain of a nasty micro-organism that affects people who have cystic fibrosis ( a genetic lung and other organ disease). That we could do this by genetic fingerprinting was fascinating. It was important too because it showed that the microbe was being transmitted between patients and meant we had to try really hard to keep patients apart and all equipment and consulting rooms super-clean. The combination of interesting and practical is appealing to me.

Hi cheesyscience!
My Dad was an Industrial Paint Chemist before he retired and he was always talking to me about science in an interesting way and the TV always seem to have some scientific programme on such as Horizon and Tommorrows World. Being a curious person I was also interested why things worked the way they did eg how did a bee fly and how did flowers grow.
My Biology Teacher in secondary school also made Science fun at school and I think that was the final inspiration to going into a Science career:).
