Researchers will need to travel to attend work-related conferences or work on a clinical trial with some companies. If the interviewer asks this question, they want to ensure you know the job requirements regarding travel and make sure that will not be an issue if hired. If traveling is one of the job requirements, the company should have put that in the job description, so it should not surprise you in the interview.

Focus on assuring the interviewer that traveling will not be an issue when required. Emphasize how you enjoy traveling to new places and do not have outside obligations that prohibit you from doing so.
