    Well it was the work he did at uni. For his thesis he got 2 papers published (chemistry- working with P450 enzymes..!??!) one as the lead, one as a group member. I have no idea what it's really about.....! It's really complicated!! Honestly I have tried... Feel like a bad W2B!

    thats lucky olokia. my hubby did a phd in Physics (yuck) and me in Chemistry, and he works for a bank and me for a health care company. i try and understand what he does in his 'modelling team at the banl' but i dont. ;( i feel bad at times esp when explaining to people. i am sure he doesnt know what i do properly. hehe

    H2B did chem, friends did chem, physics x2. All at Oxford, and the friends doing PHDs... Most I the time I have to ask them to dumb down the conversation for me!!! N when they get completely ridiculous I just nod along and think of shoes!
