      Hi Asier,

      I worked for a year in a neuroscience lab with involved post-mortem analysis and surgical removal of some organs. I was nervous and it was a very difficult and extremely long process. I realized during that internship how much easier bacteria are to work with than bigger things!

      I obtained my animal work licence which involved doing some surgical training. In particular trying to get catheter tubing into blood vessels. I was rubbish at it. I never did any surgery after than!!! I had members of my team do the surgical work!
