    party-parrot-science “Does ‘Standing on the shoulders of giants’ mean nothing to you?”

    Of course it’s the teams. Science by its very nature is collaborative and cannot be done without drawing from the work of your peers, being educated by by your peers, and having your work peer reviewed and repeated by other scientists.

    There is no such thing as individual science. The very term makes no sense.
