      Because it looked fun & a bit different to what I normally do.
      I think that anything that helps encourage people to think about science is a good thing!

      I saw something about it on the internet and thought it was a great idea. It’s brilliant to have the opportunity to answer your questions about our work and about science in general. We’ve only been going for two days and I’ve already learned so much from you as well as my fellow scientists! 🙂

      I really enjoy teaching people about what I do, and about the future potential of science. I am planning to write an interactive book on regenerative medicine for high school students, and I’m getting a really good idea of the sort of questions you all have and what sort of information I could include in the book.

      Where I work people are very interested in schools out of reach activities and this seemed like a very good way of talking to people about the relevance of science.
