      Yes, and I did, and I will again.

      I was a researcher, but now I’m a lab manager… I don’t have scientific projects of my own, but help others with theirs. In the future I would like to be a teacher.

      Into something that isnt science? Not really

      Onto a new job in science? Yes! I have only 6 months left in this job so I am looking now at places from NASA electronics to other universities that do similar things. I love science and think I’ll always be in it in some way.

      I have, yes. Nothing so far away from Science though. 🙂 I love research and I would like to set up my own laboratory and recruit students and postdocs and do amazing science. But sometimes, when this dreams feels like it may not happen, I consider other jobs…I am still pushing being a good scientist but if it doesn’t work out I have back up plans:)
