That's not really a thing in this country. I'm sorry to see you so broken that you find joy and hope for your fellow mans misery.

Once again, it is really sad to see how far your nation has fallen, that this is your instinctual answer. There was a time, when studying in oxford was considered a thing of pride in STEM. Now we avoid anything west of Vienna here. Don't get me wrong, i'm sure there are still great minds in the UK, it is after all the land of "lets wallace and gromit our way out of this shit". But you do seem to have an incomprihensibly retarded government and a culture crumbling under it's own good will and humanity; preventing your greats from emerging.

Well i worked on forensic and diagnostic methods for a while, mostly catching rapists and helping diagnose Alzheimers and IR early. Now i'm more focused on more permanent, long tearm solutions to heart diseases, mostly single treatment methods. So you don't have to take pills all your life.
Anything can be misused by vile men in politics, and all men in politics are vile, but there is still plenty of room to do some good too.
It's not my main reason for doing what i do, i'm not that much of an altruist or egotist, i just really enjoy lab work and research, i find it fun. But it does feel better when what i do has benefit to my countrymen.
