I think it's great to see how they've grown up, not just as actors but as people. They're still very much the same kids that I met many years ago.

I decided that the University of Sussex in Brighton was a good place for this work because it had a strong tradition in bacterial molecular genetics and an excellent reputation in biology. ↗
