      Definitely not – I get to do all different kinds of experiments and learn all kinds of new things, so it’s never boring.

      No certainly not, I really enjoy my job and the diversity of what I get to do means it never becomes boring. Sometimes doing science requires great patience as you need to be very meticulous in the gathering of data and the analysis of results. However, the satisfaction of achieving a good result which will stand up to scrutiny is well worth it.

      Definitely NO!!! it is very exciting that I have to face new challenges everyday, so it is never boring. Apart from that as a result of my research I travel to many places and because of that I have seen many many cities in Europe only! which is not at all possible if u r working in any other job. If it is ur dream job, which gives u immense pleasure mentally, peace and challenges u everyday how come u get bored. My laboratory gives me a fantastic view of Kew gardens, with Lily Pond right in front of my eyes. so no chance for Boredom Dear!
