      I don’t do any research a the moment but I do think research I did in a previous job on hepatitis E could help patients in the future.

      I hope so as that is what spurs me on when things are tough.

      Most research is adding a little bit more information like adding a piece to the jig saw problem. I never did discover a completely new hormone (which would have been my dream!) particularly because new hormones continue to be discovered.
      My later research was on endocrine disrupters (known in the media as gender bending chemicals) which helped towards solving whether or not they do have effects in humans. A little piece of the jug saw problem!
