      The main way I get feedback on what other scientists think of my work is through presenting my work at national or international conferences and by getting my work published in peer-reviewed journals. In both of these situations, you are asked questions about your work and if it is not good enough, you will not be selected to present at all! So far, I have had lots of positive comments on the work that I have done 🙂

      There are always some people who are happy with my work and there are always some people who feel my work could have given better results if I had worked in a different way(Usually their way…lol). At times some scientist completely disagree with my method /logic behind the solution to a problem. However, it is not a verbal argument unless it is with my boss/team-mates. As Charlotte said above we present our work in conferences and submit our work in journals and receive written feedback. It has been fine so far with me. 🙂

      Generally it is always good to present my work at conferences where a broad variety of scientists can discuss my work. In detail there is a special group of scientists who work in my are who closely watch what I am doing. The group is called chi-med you can find out more are http://www.chi-med.ac.uk
