What inspired you to become a scientist?
The subject of criminal law and prisons, which I wrote about in my master's thesis, turned out to be extremely interesting. It combines many sciences, such as law, psychology and social rehabilitation. I really like it and several years of work in the court only confirmed that the law and real-life cases can be surprising, scary and, in a way, addictive.
What impact would you like your work to have on society?
It is always worth talking about human rights, including those of convicts, who are often deprived of their humanity, which is why they are excluded from normal, libertarian society. This should not take place.
How do you understand the term: profession of a scientist?
A scientist is a person who deals with a specific subject in different ways and on different levels. Combining theory with practice is crucial in the field of law. That is what my definition of scientist is, that's what I'd like to be.
