      Hi Chloe,

      I don’t feel pressured as such, but I do realise the importance of my job and that people with cancer are relying on myself and all of the other cancer research scientists and doctors to make discoveries that help them. I feel like I am part of a big team effort – I have colleagues all around the world who I talk to about research and come up with the best ways of doing experiments and hopefully getting breakthroughs. I really hope to help people and make some useful discoveries, but all I can do is my best, and im sure if I work hard, success will come.
