Question: So how did you get involved into modelling genes when you haven't taken Biology as degree/PhD?

Nowadays there’s lots of interdisciplinary research happening, and no-one can have all the skills needed to understand very complex things in full, as such teams of people working together can combine these skills and learn what each other are experts in, and combine this knowledge to further progress science. Over the last few years, I’ve learnt quite a lot of biology!
