Question: What made you change your mind between being a Vet to a Scientist?

Great question! I had always wanted to be a Vet and had my mind set on it for a long time. After I didn’t get in to a Veterinary Medicine degree course, I chose a Science subject related to animals. After doing my degree I had learnt so much more about other topics in Science, I decided I would continue a Scientific career but still in something which would benefit animals. I love the research I am doing because it is still related to animals and also has the potential to provide information about human cells as well!
