Kudaranai Mono Ga Watashi Tachi Wo Sukuttekureru

[Machine Translation] I don't know what sin I committed in my previous life, but I dreamed of becoming a scientist. I am currently researching "cute little nematodes," which are often treated as trivial things. I work long hours, earn low wages, and have difficulty finding a job. I am often beaten down and encouraged by other people's papers, and I envy the environment in Europe and the U.S., where I am supported by ample funds. But why don't I stop? Because it is fun. That is why, in this book, I want to convey the joy of science as well as the daily life of science. ( To let people know that research needs money! ) Now, let's go to the small universe inside the microscope.

前世で何の罪を犯したせいかは知らないが、科学者になるのが夢だった。そんなわたしは現在、くだらないもの扱いされがちな「かわいいチビっ子線虫」を研究している。長時間労働、低賃金、就職難にあえぎながら、他人の論文に打ちのめさたり励まされたり、潤沢な資金に支えられた欧米の環境をうらやましく思ったりと、正直つらいことも多い。それでもやめないのはなぜか?楽しいからだ。だから本書では、科学する日常とともに楽しさも伝えたい。(研究にお金が必要なことを知ってもらうためにも!)いざ、顕微鏡の中の小さな宇宙へ。
