      Hi @Jwells98,
      Thank you for your interesting question and it has really made me think. Hmmmmm….my ultimate goal for science out of the options you have given me would be enrichment for me and for others with the information I find out from my experiments. I think this would be the most fulfilling for me as a scientist. One day……???
      Thanks, Gemma

      Dear Jwells98,
      It would make me very happy if sometime in the future my research can help the medical profession reduce human death rate from heart attacks.

      I cannot never become a millionaire by being a scientist and fame has its own problems. But if my research can give someone a second chance or improve their quality of life then it has been worthwhile doing.

      Thanks for your question.

      Loan
