      I should only win if you guys really think my answers have been honest, helpful and interesting! I’m ok if I don’t win though because I’m having a really good time and you’re all making me think hard which i enjoy.

      I think we should all win 🙂 Everyone has good ideas about how to use the prize to help bring science to more schools. But you can only choose one, so choose the person who you think is the best scientist and whose answers you understand: someone who knows some things but who owns up when they don’t know the answer. Most scientists know lots and lots about very little! I’m one of them

      I can’t answer this question. I signed up for this competition for the experience and I’m really enjoying it. You know what I would like to do with the money if I win, but it’s up to you to decide who should win.

      I think we all really deserve to win, we are all doing really cool work and we are all going to put the money to good use 🙂 You should just vote for whoever you want to win i guess, the reasons you vote are of course entirely up to you! I have really enjoyed being a part of this whole competition though so if i am voted out on day 1 or make it to day 5 i am just really happy to have been voted in in the first place 🙂

      OOOOO Difficult question! Well, its because I love communicating my research to the public and students like you. That’s the objective of this amazing event! Here’s some of the exciting things I have done to make science fun and understandable
