One of the problems related to being involved in research is switching off from it. Because research is so open ended you can spend all your time thinking about it, looking for ways to get funding, thinking about how you can improve a paper. You can easily become a bore!
Yes, there is life outside of research, so I am told. How do up manage the life/research balance? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Hum... I suppose that I balance them by default – you have to, when you have young children around who don’t care about deadlines. But I do carry a notepad with me (now, use the phone, instead) to jot down ideas that come up during those ‘forced time out’ times.
