    I got a degree in microbiology in 95 and I did not know about these. Heck I even did a rotation in an xray crystallography lab which was super into cellular structures.

      To be brutally honest, 95 was an eternity ago in microbiology terms. Human genome project didn’t complete till 2003. You must have some wild perspective on seeing us go from what are essentially a modern dark times to modern day

        oh certainly. even at that time the xray crystallography lab was basically dying out as it was becoming more of a standard tool rather than an area of research.

          From the Age of Enlightenment to essentially space flight, in a single career. 🤓🤌🏼

            Oh I think my thing is a bit misleading. I left the field in 1998 and switched to IT for the pay. I pretty much stopped being on the inside at that time.
