"The more I learn about biology, the more I’m blown away by it. The cell is probably the most amazing and fascinating piece of God’s creation. The sum of thousands of years of human knowledge has not even comprehended it, and brilliant scientists will spend a lifetime studying one of thousands of proteins. That’s how amazing creation is."
