I share your conviction that society embracing bio is a future we should aim for, and your thoughts and articulation on ways in which we can guide society toward that future are inspiring. Find myself nodding to the ends of your paragraphs. Keep going!!
I enjoyed this piece, Sofia! It reminded me of the grad school application essay I wrote for the Materials Science program, trying to convince the Department Head who had worked on synthetic polymers his whole life that biological materials ARE the way of the future. I look forward to reading your future stories!
