      There are several people I look up to and want to do similar things to what they do, but in my own way. There are great scientists working in my area and in related areas, and I want to be able to do as good research as they do, and make it even better. As AV Hill won a Nobel Prize for his work, I think I’ll have to work very hard to even get close to that! I also admire several scientists and people working in other areas who stand up for what it the right thing to do and stick up for others when needed, and this is something I always try to do.

      I would not say I want to “copy” someone but there are several researchers in my field who I respect and look up to as good Scientists. In research it is important to find and research your own novel topic area especially if you want to excel and be known for research in a certain field. Which can be difficult when there is a lot of good research being conducted.
