    What is a typical day like for you?

  • Answer the question you selected for profile question 1 here (300 words):
    A typical day in the lab starts with a cup of coffee, then I read the science news, usually on twitter: new discoveries in general, also new papers; after that I have to check my plants, water them. Then I can do my experiments. Finally I read some papers (1 or 2), and plan new experiments for the next day.
