About Us


 

I prefer to solve abstract problems and understand the physical world rather than acting upon the world. I enjoy complicated problems and intellectual challenges. I do not like structured situations, lots of rules, or working around many people. I have unconventional values and attitudes and would like to be original and creative, especially in scientific areas.
