      The hardest part for me is getting stuck on a problem and having difficulties find a solution. My research progress slows down and it can get quite frustrating trying to fix it.

      The hardest part of my job is solving problems and writing up my work. It can be difficult to convey what’s in my head onto paper sometimes.

      I can’t work out what the hardest part for me is, I have two parts which are difficult in different ways. One is dealing with the bureaucracy of big organisations, filling in forms and stuff. The other is when all of our technology can’t help somebody: it’s more emotionally difficult, but everyone’s got to live with not being able to do everything!

      The hardest part of my job is learning and keeping up with all of the scientific specialists, but it’s also one of my favourite parts so there’s no worries!
