      I would have to go with evolution, since I’m fascinated by where humans come from. Darwin did an amazing job in a time when you had to get on a ship and travel for months to study exotic species! Of course I’ve chosen evolutionary theory because it’s part of my job, but we really rely on other discoveries to work where we do, it would be very tough living in the forest without solar power 🙂

      The best discovery? Probably DNA. Understanding how our genes work has led to loads of advances in medicine and in other areas of science.
