I spend half my time as a doctor specialising in hearts and the other half researching heart disease. As a doctor, I try to make people feel better, spend a lot of time talking to patients and their families and do lots of procedures on patients (mostly involving large needles).
In my research, I am making a computer program (basically a fancy computer game) that can tell us how to treat a patient. I make pretty pictures of peoples heart arteries and predict what would happy to the blood flow in them with different treatments.

No two days are the same.
As a doctor, rushing around trying to help people feel better, sticking needles in places (mostly hearts), playing detective to work out why people feel ill and talking to patients and families.
As a researcher, playing on a computer making pretty pictures of peoples hearts, drinking coffee, trying not to fall asleep in meetings.
