      Well about 20-25 hrs only! Coz I am working as visiting researcher (that means i dont earn money from research I do it on volunteer basis). If I have power than definitely I would like to remove hunger and diseases from the face of earth, and maintain peace (No warfare)!!!

      Well my job is mostly science based although there are some other things to do like paper work etc. I work about 40hours a week, sometimes more if its a busy time.

      I spend at least 40 hours a week at work, but if there are things that need to be finished (which there often are) then I might end up working later into the evening. Sometimes I do reading at home as well. I try to keep my weekends free for other things.

      I would love to be able to cure world hunger and poverty, but this is a bit of a mammoth task, so I donate a small amount of money to Oxfam each month so that they can steadily work towards this goal.
