Perhaps you have a preference, and maybe you don't. However, you answer this question, be sure to keep your reply positive. (IE: Avoid saying "I dislike studies related to animals." You don't want to shut down any particular practice.)

"I can honestly say that I do not have a preference as of yet. As I continue to carve out my career, that may change; however, for the moment, I am happy to be working in the biotech industry in any related focus."

Honestly, I have no preference. I am at this transitional stage where I am open to any opportunity. I want to learn any skills, experiences, and topics; perhaps over time, that may change.

Amanda's Feedback

I like that your answer highlights your willingness to learn and openness to new opportunities. If you truly have no preference regarding the studies you work with, you can give this answer more impact by talking about the kind of studies (human, animal, or plant) that you have experience in and what you were able to learn from them. This helps support the first part of your answer and confirms that you're an avid learner.
