First of all, mathematical physics is a good thing. It can be highly abstract and natural, and its specialty lies in the construction of models. However, it is doubtful how much this method can do for biology. At present, there are various mathematical models trying to solve biological problems, but they are basically useless. Such a model is basically useless when an accident happens. Furthermore, bioinformatics advocated by a group of people in Zhihu is mainly because bioinformatics does not need to do so many experiments. Doesn't look like pure biology. Bioinformatics is good at analyzing a large number of data, which mainly plays the role of finding directions in biological research. I think the future trend must be a company specializing in bioinformatics analysis. In the future, bioinformatics, just like doing the west, is just an experiment of biology. It is impossible for a pure bioinformatics laboratory to exist, and it must rely on a strong biological foundation to survive. However, the so-called prenatal sequencing in Huada, I think what is done without understanding the various signal pathways of various genes in the biological system is basically unreliable. I don't know how many tumor markers have been screened by various protein omics. If there is no biology to prove it, it is just a pile of data, which is of little use, because we know too little about some basic things of cells and organisms. A gene has such a function in lower organisms, and it may have another function in that organism. I don't object to making predictions by sequencing, but I hope to do it as deeply as possible in biology.

Moreover, whether mathematics is good or not is also related to biology. Some people who do physics or mathematics think that biology has no logic, which is really ridiculous. Please read the articles on CNS yourself first. If you do it well, you will have a complete set of logic, but it is relatively difficult for biology to do this, and you must have a very powerful laboratory in theory and technology.

In short, whether it is mathematics, physics or chemistry, the participation of these disciplines in biology has indeed played a great role in promoting the development of biology, but it is always based on biological methods, and their participation is mainly as a tool, and biological methods are always the first. Furthermore, imagine that there are so many principles that these tools need to know, and most of them just need to learn how to use them. The study of biotechnology is very big, all kinds of experiments need to be done constantly, and the learning cost is very high. On the other hand, whether it is mathematics or physics, the learning cost is relatively low, and you can learn by yourself. Learning biology, learning biology is the main thing.

Finally, welcome to join the ranks of stem cells and be abused. You have to be guarded every day, and you will be separated if you are not careful. There is no holiday industry, hee hee! Cells abuse me thousands of times, and I treat cells like first love.
