      Great question, I really enjoy my job. I love the freedom it can give you to chase your own ideas or to help others realise theirs. I love the challenges that science can present and the satisfaction you get when you can solve or overcome the problems presented to you.
      What subjects do you enjoy at the moment and do you think you might one day have a career in those areas?

      Yes, because there’s lots of variety. Most people working in science seem to enjoy it.

      I am working on developing non-toxic pesticides from plants against insects so that the developed pesticides are least toxic to humans and in the meantime must b effective in controlling insects which deteriorates our food crops. u must be unaware about the fact that about 20-30% food crops are lost due to pests annually in whole world. It is a huge commercial and aesthetical loss as u know many people r dying of hunger in world. If this bit can be saved it cn go to these hungry people or we do not b acquiring forest land for agricultural usage to feed huge human population.

      Plus I do my place very close to nature. The outside view is beautiful. From lab I can c lily Pond!! whatelse in world u will like in a job, Nice work, excellent working conditions, satisfaction, peace of mind, and vey close to nature. So ofcourse I enjoy my job 🙂
