We present a transcript of the Phase Space Invaders podcast interview, with Tamar Schlick interviewed by Miłosz Wieczór. The conversation covers topics in computational biophysics and beyond: DNA and RNA research from genome organization to viral RNA frameshifting, transitioning from applied math to biology, developing algorithms and their utility in molecular dynamics and complex multiscale systems, the role of computers in biophysical research, writing reviews and books, collaborating in science, and using long-distance running as a template for building supportive communities.
