      I think there are so many thrills to being a scientist, that this answer would be too long! So i’m going to stick with the main one.

      I think the main one would be what I get to study. I’m amazed by the heart and how it works. And as a scientist I can ask questions like “Does the heart become weaker as you age?” and try to find the answer to that question. The thrill comes when you discover the answer, and no one else has seen this and you get to tell everyone about it – kind of showing off basically.

      I like the art of discsssion and debate. Nothing like giving my opinion on a subject matter although I normally have to admit to being wrong lol
