+'Hi, I'm Katty and I like science.' This sentence represented the only two things that I have been positively sure of for the past few years. I remember when I was a child, I was deterred from going into research because a career in research was a 'boring, low-paying job' as portrayed by a woman in a lab coat would be in complete disamusement while using a micropipette. 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.
