How do you balance your steemit life and real life
> It's a little bit complicated.
When my real life task demands much time, I give it much time and vice versa
Motivation to study your career.
>From the onset I was never motivated to study Microbiology, Medicine is always my choice. I was denied admission to study Medicine twice but I was later offered admission to study Microbiology. I accepted the offer and I enjoyed it. The motivation came in the process of learning.
Challenges/survival story in your specialty
> Major challenges in Microbiology is the cost implications and availability of equipment for microbiological researches. During my Masters degree, I visited several universities in search of a machine to carry out a particular analysis. Some colleagues sent their samples abroad while some improvised. We surely survived!
