Field of Study
I was influenced by my father, who loved science, and my sister, who started doing undergraduate research and loved it. She often brought me to her lab, showed me around, and explained what she was doing and why. I started doing research myself as an undergraduate and loved it because it was always something new and often unpredictable.
