This is an interview I did with my good friend Robert "Bobby" Lancefield in May of 2020. We chat about online courses, using different software tools, adjusting to work-at-home for covid, some of our activities outside of work and some reflections on our graduate studies at the Biomedical Communications (BMC) program at University of Toronto–Mississauga.
