As promised, let me introduce to you Sexy Seran who will be posting her very first SiSS article very soon.
To know her a little better, I sent her a questionnaire about her interest for Science - which BTW you can all fill :) - and here are her answers:
When or why did you first think about pursuing your interest for Science?
When I was in school, I really enjoyed Biology lessons and I had brilliant biology teachers throughout secondary school. When I had to choose subjects to study at A-level, I chose to study Biology, Chemistry, Psychology, English and Critical Thinking. I was one of the few in my class who didn't know at this point what career I wanted, but I knew that I enjoyed these subjects so it made sense to continue to study them.
What did you do about it?
A-levels, Degree, Master
How did you find it?
Challenging
If you are happy you academically pursued your interest in Science, what was the best bit?
That rare moment when an experiment with a really long protocol actually generates useful results. (Also a big perk was knowing that I don't have to work in front of a computer doing a 9-5pm job near Old Street station wearing office clothes by the end of it).
What is your current career path or what will your next career move be?
Right now it could be anything from carrying out a PhD, to working at a science editorial position to a hospital lab.
Is there anything you would have done differently?
Being completely honest, I know I could have worked a lot harder during my undergraduate degree.
How important do you think Science is?
An acquired taste.
That is a very good adjective Seran, one that I'm sure many of our Sexy readers will agree with. Thank you for answering SiSS questionnaire on your interest for Science, we are all looking forward to reading your article,
See you Soon for Seran's Sexy Science,
I never applied myself to the Science subjects when I was at school. It's really interesting to read about someone who did!
ReplyDeleteHey I am a science buff having done a PHD too. And I am all for role models like Seran too.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jenny! The fact that you're here though demonstrates that you still have an interest in science, and so it's never to late to learn :)
