      You get to ask the questions and then test out your theories!

      I really love being able to do research and generate findings which are useful. A lot of the time in science we might be finding things that are really interesting, but don’t necessarily help people. In health psychology, the things we’re finding out can be applied in places like to NHS to stop people from developing disease, but also to help people who have health conditions to live happier and healthier lives. That’s really exciting.
