This is super valuable. One of the biggest gaps in science is that it's hard for academic researchers to get grants for software engineering. Academic life scientists often rely on code written by postdocs and students in their nonexistent free time between running experiments. https://twitter.com/michael_nielsen/status/1129019618620690432 …
BUT, profit incentives often dissuade biotech companies from sharing as much of their data & tools as would be ideal, for the purpose of accelerating science. It sucks, and I'll try to fight those pressures at Daphnia, but they're there.
