Sally Otto @sarperotto.bsky.social and I are back with the next installment of “Reflections on the history of modeling and theory”, supported by @smtpb.bsky.social. Bob Holt shares his personal history and stories of his life in science: www.youtube.com/watch?v=q8hX...

Had a blast at the annual @smtpb.bsky.social meeting @nitmb.bsky.social! Thoroughly enjoyed sharing my work on cancer evolutionary ecology, connecting with old and new theory colleagues, and of course discussing toroidal snakes ;)
