Scientist and builder

by

Hi all,

I just joined the platform today, after hearing about it for a while. I am a biology research scientist by training, and I absolutely love solving problems. I recently discovered I can apply that to tech development as well, and not just figuring out why my PCR didn't work again (it's honestly voodoo, I swear). I learned how to code, and with AI growing in leaps and bounds, the playing field is getting more accessible for those of us coming from a less techy background. I've built a few small projects, mainly for myself/friends/to practice, and I'm working on a project now that I would like to launch here when it's ready.

I think coming from a scientific research perspective into the world of app development has actually been a huge plus. I'm used to the build-test-doesn't work-iterate-try again cycle, just with tubes and pipettes instead of a terminal and Railway. Perseverance is the name of the game! And it helps when you love the process, too.

Looking forward to participating on the platform, and seeing the cool stuff you guys are building.

Love this scientist-to-builder story! That perseverance from the lab totally translates...excited to see what you launch. If you're up for it, I'm launching The Sponge on PH soon...AI-powered flashcard app with a browser extension that turns webpages into study material using spaced repetition. Would appreciate a follow (PRODUCT HUNT LAUNCH link in my profile).
