hey liverpool fan,
You should vote for me because of this stark reality:
Many people are not aware of the impending doom that is being brought about by the squeeze on fuel reserves and climate change and what our options are into the future.
I want to use the prize money to visit schools, such as your own, to inform the scientists of tomorrow what is happening today and what we need to do, so you can make the difference in ensuring we do not doom our civilisation.
How long I have been a scientist: 16 years since my degree and nearly 10 since my PhD. The second one is usually what counts.

Hey,
It’s hard to say the exact time when you start being a scientist. I finished my science degree in 2012 and now I’ve done the first year of my PhD so I guess I’ve had a certificate to say that I’m a scientist for just over a year but I won’t be a proper science researcher until I finish my PhD.
As for who you vote for I think you should go with whoever’s answers you find the most interesting.
Also, I study cute animals and have a puppy in my picture… just saying 🙂
Sive

why is it called science
Michael commented on :
It comes from the latin word scientia which translates as knowledge.
So science is about gaining knowledge
