      Yes, I guess I am a little bit, it would be very nice to win, and very important to our lab as well but no…I don’t think I will win 🙂

      Of course I would like to win but I don’t know if I will, that’s up to you!
      But all the guys in this zone seem to be very interesting and their work seems to be very important. Hard choice really!

      I’d love to win! Vote for me and I will 😉

      But I have to say, there are a lot of great ideas about what to do with the money. So I’ll have lots of comfort knowing how the public and science will benefit even if I don’t win.

      Do we want to win what? I’m quite competitive – I want to be the best at what I do, do better experiments than everyone else and get better results. That’s part of what drives me. I find my science is quite competitive, everyone is always trying to get the edge to get more citations (people referencing their papers) and more publications. If you’re the first to do something good then everyone else has to follow!

      I’m not really that competitive – more of a team player. But, it would be very nice to win, I’d be pretty chuffed!
