• Question: was there a time when you found out something that was so amazing that you wanted to scream right then and there?

      My science is actually pretty incremental, so while I’ve always been excited by the results (and sometimes perplexed), I’ve never wanted to scream about them.

      Now, I have been so excited I screamed, when I learned I got a fellowship or an award to continue to support my science. Those are much more unexpected.
