I thought this phrase is very nice to have as our group's conceptual goal:
"Mathematics is biology's next microscope, only better; Biology is mathematics' next physics, only better" By Joel Cohen 2004. PLoS Biology 12(12): 2017-2023.
Biologists are interested in using math to advance understanding of biological systems, and mathematicians are interested in using biological problems to advance mathematical techniques. I thought this is a nice slogan to keep in mind for our discussion. I hope that, by discussing math ecology papers, we both gain knowledge to achieve our (different) goals.
