Thank you so much for the awesome content! I started using your Ribbon software back in 2021 and have been following you ever since as a bioinformatics PhD. I’ve learned so much from your videos, blogs, and podcasts-both technical stuff and general insights. I was a bit sad when you became less active, but it’s been exciting to see you back with your new business! And you've been posting a lot lately, haha. It's truly inspiring! I’m usually not much of a commenter, but really had to say thanks.
As a hardware person, I would say it's trickier, but still doable, to do side hustles in instrumentation engineering. However, in my case I was a semi-pro mountain biker for the first three years of my PhD so made extra money with bike stunts. Thanks for this interesting and useful video Maria. Hopefully we'll see you at AGBT 2025!
Completely agree! I have made money from my side hustle but the value came more from the network I have built (and continue to build) and the new skills that I learned during the process.
Well I distributed it freely myself, so that's not a risk in that case :) But you take the little precautions you can, though focus more on marketing than on preventing little bits of fraud. The biggest risk is obscurity.
@OMGenomics Thank you very much for the reply. I agree with you that the emphasis should be given to creating useful content and marketing rather than concentration on frauds. Thanks again 🙏

1. Writing a bioinformatics course (plotting in R for biologist)
2. Freelancing projects (D3 JS)
3. Internship in Industry
Sounds Like a Good Idea. I shall try it on a tentative part-time short-term basis ! Thank You. !
This is also a great video introducing the bioinfo apps you developed so far!
impressive journey and i must say you motivated many of us
thanks for your channel!
Thanks for sharing its very insightful
exited for your journey 🔥
Do you provide any virtual internship or training programs?
Mostly just what's on this channel and sandbox.bio. What type of training program are you looking for?
Thanks for sharing. Just 1 question on how to stop copying your course and distributing it freely by others. Appreciate your idea
