      This would be very exciting. I would share the discovery with my boss and the people I work with to check we believe the result is true. As a team we would publish a paper in online journals to tell the world. We would also prepare lots of research to explore the new substance or microbe.

      I would be amazed to begin with…and the first think I would want to do is make more discoveries that wont have any patents on it. That way I can ensure my work is for the greater good of the society…I hope that the industries where the studies will be performed can help me in this mission of mine and together we can do something where no one in the world has to suffer 😀

      I’d be super excited and would want to tell everyone! But first I would need to confirm the discovery by speaking to other scientists and checking all my data, then we would write this up in a scientific paper (like a newspaper for science) and then we could run around and tell people!
