Biology was my refuge because it was simple: Read the textbook, memorize the facts, and ace the exam.
Rob is a master of physical biology; a person who has spent decades building a numerical intuition for biology.
I took courses like Physical Biology of the Cell and wrote out statistical mechanics equations on big whiteboards.
In biology textbooks, one often reads sentences like, "A protein's substrate has a concentration of 0.5 millimolar."
We ought to teach students of biology to think as mathematicians: to carefully quantify biology, to think in absolute units, and to develop a feeling for the organism.
