      I did two of the live chats in the airport while waiting for my flight, and another on my phone in the taxi home! I respond to questions every chance I get 🙂

      You can vote for your favourite scientist :D, if you feel that they are improving your knowledge in the area of microbiology and inspiring you 🙂
      If I win then I will use the money to spread more awareness of microbial world with my public engagement lectures and also do outreach work in rural schools.

      Vote for the person you feel is the best to win. If I win I will see what the company can do to maybe have a work experience student come to the lab, but if not possible I will donate the money to a charity that provides antibiotics and/or vaccines to the third world where it is needed most and write about the importance of drug discovery for infectious disease.

      It’s up to you! I havent been able to do as many chats as I would like but I have responded to all the questions for me. Think about which person’s work feels most exciting/important/meaningful to you. I think all the scientists are doing great stuff, so whoever wins will be able to make a big impact.
