Status Updates From Transformer: The Deep Chemi...

This book is amazing. I am learning connections between hydrothermal vents (what I didn’t know what was!), fermentation and anaerob photosynthesis (that I know some practical stuff about) and cancer cells!!!
A tour de force of a lot of acids and enzymes and carbon varieties I don’t really understand. But I am still getting the general patterns. Wow.

This book is really fascinating but also making clear how complicated experimental biochemistry can be! I’m dying to learn more about this little universe of energy-making in our organisms. But I’m actually starting to be happy I haven’t trained in a laboratory after all…

I’m on my way down a natural science shaped rabbit hole called biochemistry… Can I start another university degree at ago 48…?? Or just somehow study biochemistry….?
