Question: is it annoying when you can't get the formula correct?

Hi Victoria,

I don’t work on formulation per se – the chemical formula for Graphene is just C. However, there are a lot of very sensitive experiments that are easy to mess up – a small mistake can ruin several weeks of work. This is extremely annoying but part of the day to day life of being a research scientist.
