So THAT’S why a biologist had to reinventcalculus in 1994:

Which is why all the bio papers are n=2

Guess biology isn’t STEM then, sorry.
But I’m all seriousness, calculus (and by extension differential equations) is super common in bio. Reaction rates, stable population sizes, micro and macro. I’d be surprised if you never came across it.
