The following is a conversation with Munchery Korkin, his second time in the podcast.

He's a professor of bioinformatics and computational biology at WPI, where he specializes in bioinformatics

of complex disease, computational genomics, systems biology, and biomedical data analytics.

He loves biology, he loves computing, plus he is Russian and recites a poem in Russian

at the end of the podcast.

As a side note, let me say that to me, the scientists that did the best, apolitical, impactful,

brilliant work of 2020 are the biologists who study viruses without an agenda, without

much sleep, to be honest, just a pure passion for scientific discovery and exploration of

the mysteries within viruses.

Viruses are both terrifying and beautiful, terrifying because they can threaten the fabric

of human civilization.

It's biological and psychological, beautiful because they give us insights into the nature

of life on earth and perhaps even extraterrestrial life of the not so intelligent variety that

might meet us one day as we explore the habitable planets and moons in our universe.
