      Yes, sort of! Scientists are pretty competitive and want to get to the answer first. However there are tons of questions to be answered and sooo much we don’t know a lot of scientists work on their on particular little corner of science. There’s a lot of working together and sharing data, but sometimes it can be a bit of a race. I haven’t had that so much myself but know of people that have.

      Do you think its a good or bad thing that science is a little competitive?
