Corley paused, his thoughts swirling. "So, letsee if I've got this straight," he began, "Biology is the big picture, right? Applied life sciences are all about getting your hands dirty in the lab, while bioinformatics is more about crunching numbers, using math, computer science, and statistics to tackle biological questions?" Roseanne looked at him, her gaze taking on a new level of seriousness.

"You've got it exactly right," she confirmed.

"Really?" Corley's face brightened into a grin, his eyes twinkling with satisfaction. "Well, all credit to you. You explained it perfectly. I'm just summarizing, breaking it down into simpler terms?"
