What fascinates me most about doing science is the opportunity to look for answers to the questions that remained unanswered for ages. The ability to satiate your curiosity and at the same time experience the thrill of new findings is what keeps me going. Besides, women are inherently bestowed with the qualities to be multitasking, patient and resilient, which are the important skills for being successful in science. Planning experiments is no less than art and anticipating the outcomes is indeed a boost to my creativity and imagination. Thus, my workbench is my happy place that gives me freedom to explore a world of my own, devoid of boundaries.
