I liked science very much. A science teacher in high school inspired me, and because of him, I began studying science at the university. But when I got there... well, the subject still attracted me a lot, but I had to do all these exams, and it was just like working in an office. I couldn't stand that.

I did grow up with a really big interest in math and science; I liked it.

One of the reasons I'm so passionate about science is that it wasn't correctly taught to me. I got excited at university.

I was rather hopeless at school, but the one subject I seemed to be good at was domestic science.

I was interested in science before I even knew what science was.

So I decided on science when I was in college.

I had then and still retain an interest in science for its own sake and as a metaphor for our current lives.

I fell in love with science and decided to continue for my Ph.D., and from there on, I was a scientist.

I've always liked all the sciences, like math, physics and biology.

I wasn't an academic. I hated maths and science at school. I couldn't concentrate.
