  Hi coolgirlalisha543, that’s a really good question.
  I discover new things all the time, today I’ve been looking though patents – which are legal documents people protect their discoveries with. I’ve been looking at them because I’m developing an idea and I want to know if anyone has done it before, what they have done and how my ideas are different and new. Another thing I discovered was how we can use engineering – based statistics on complex biological processes for making new medicines so we can make cool graphs like the ones at the bottom of my profile page – these graphs are from some work I published, it was the first time anyone had ever used this method in the way I used it. Another new discovery I made is shown by the picture of the glowing bioreactor – this was the first time anyone had ever used this type of imaging to look inside complicated bioreactors….see the cool pic at the bottom of my profile page
