Our world is built on biology and once we begin to understand it, it then becomes a technology.

What we need is a full field guide to the microbes that live in and on people, so that we can understand what they're doing to our lives. We are them; they are us.

Biology will relate every human gene to the genes of other animals and bacteria, to this great chain of being.

It is through science that we understand the world around us, and by understanding the world around us, we not only contribute to ourselves, our family, to our communities, etc. - you also contribute to the basic development and evolution of humanity.

We are eternally linked not just to each other but our environment.

Living organisms are created by chemistry. We are huge packages of chemicals.

We are a complex species to observe.

People don't even understand that every bit of our food was once alive. We take another creature, plant, animal, microorganism, tear it apart in our mouths. And incorporate those molecules into our own bodies. We are the Earth in the most profound way.

I am fascinated by the human body and all its evolutions.
