But after launching my research career at Genspace, I realized that it's not boring – it’s exhilarating. I love being at the edge of my seat awaiting the results that I would be of the first to have. It’s so exciting to know that you are contributing to research  that will further our knowledge of the world around us and ultimately, save lives. Research is at the forefront of medicine, and I love it. So in response to that ad, yes, I do want a job like that. One of my favorite things, and also the most frustrating, is figuring out what exactly you did wrong in an experiment. Research is rarely ever a hole in one. It requires multiple attempts of poking and prodding. And the process of getting the result you want is the most rewarding experience. And when you’re finally successful, the feeling evoked is one of the most superior forms of satisfaction.";

I started working in the field of synthetic biology because anyone can find a world of possibilities at one's micropipette tips.

I am awesome because I believe I am.I don't like cats.I like to read science fiction books for fun and pondering about innovations involving science. I imagine that one day, I will be living in a world just like those in the science fiction books I read. There will be unlimited resources, easy ways to clone organs, flawless prosthetic limbs, and more. It's because science has no limit and can make the impossible happen that I love it so much.

After learning this for the first time in my freshman biology class, I started thinking about things in different ways. Sure, I’m Andrei Talaba. I like photography, guitar, fencing, and programming. I study science, and I’m an aspiring physician. But I’m more than that. And at the same time less than that. I am billions of cells trying to make sense of what will ensure their survival and cause the release of dopamine. I am life that, through research and experiments, manipulates life.
