Advice for future scientists:
Middle school: "Work hard and ask lots of questions! Look around the world and see what interests you, then find out more about it!"
High school: "Learn more about what interests you and volunteer somewhere where you can get hands-on experience, because that's where you learn the most! But most importantly do what makes you happy because people like others who want to learn."
