      The best thing I have ever done is work with people from 5 different countries on a research project! I am working with people from France, Greece, Spain and Norway and it is alot of fun! Hopefully I will get to go and visit these countries next year aswell 🙂

      Probably the most fun thing was to go to New Orleans, America to present my work at a conference. The conference was great, and I got to explore the city. I also made friends with lots of other scientists there and in the evening we went to see some live jazz and blues music and had a competition on a mechanical rodeo bull (like the ones that you get at fairgrounds) I think I came second.

      Another fun thing i did was help to develop an obesity treatment porgramme for toddlers. To do this I spent a lot of time playing games with 1-5 year olds, that was a lot of fun – little kids are hillarious!

      Dressed in a head-to-toe, lycra blue-screen suit, with just a little slit for the eyes. I’ll see if I can get a picture on here!

      The best thing i have done is go to Hawaii to do some research on triathletes. I got to go away for 7 days all paid for and i spent a lot of time in the sun!!!

      The best was proving that the work we had done was right, even though a famous scientist tried to say we were wrong. Funnest is definitely testing our skis in the alps!
