That something I have found/invented is used to better society somehow. Be this a chemical process I have helped design being used to replace an old process to reduce impact, or if I invent a useful material that is more sustainable than current ones. Or even, that I inspire one person to do something good and they go on to help the world, that would feel like an achievement!
Most of the achievements I can think of at the moment are extracurricular. I graduate from my PhD next week and have been working in Policy since leaving the lab for over a year now, so I’ve reached a stable point in my career for the moment. In my lifetime I would like to become someone who is respected and acknowledged in science policy and would like to travel to world.
