In chemistry, subatomic particles are explained in simple terms for the most part- but how and why protons and electrons attract isn’t well understood! They have charge, they attract, but the why is stuck within quantum explanations as these things are so small. #dogs #science

I want to laugh at this but it hits too close to home! lol. This is literally how people write papers in bioinformatics/computational biology! The biologists leave blanks in the paper for the data science guy/gal to fill in the details later.
