Randomly listening to #BiologyInNumbers episodes (by @parmvir.com for @smbmathbiology.bsky.social) and really enjoyed @suzannesindi.bsky.social's! I wish I'd heard it during my Ph.D. - esp: "most of the time what you try does not work... it feels like you're always solving a puzzle".

This year's @smbmathbiology.bsky.social meeting provided us with another delightful mashup of math biologists (and me) talking about science, and in Amy's case, ultra-running and conference coffee ☕
Thanks to all the excellent attendees who agreed to speak with me for Biology in Numbers.
