      Hi,

      I really like working with cells as they make up our entire body. If we understand more about how they work then we might be able to cure a lot more diseases.

      A bad thing about working with cells is you have to look after them very very carefully in the lab to make sure they stay alive and happy – for example they like to stay warm at 37oC (body temperature) and cant be exposed to too much light! If they all die then your experiment is ruined!!
