My Work:

I work mainly with vitamin A (the stuff that makes carrots orange). Did you know that vitamin A is vitally important for your brain? I study how this works
My Typical Day:

A typical day… probably mostly sat in the lab, after that there are meetings with other scientists (including my boss!) and the dull part of my day which is writing up the days’ findings.
What I'd do with the prize money:

Here’s a pledge, if you vote for me, I will visit your school and put on a science show with the cash – how does that sound?
