I'm a PhD student in computational biology and what we start from when doing research is findings from the 18th century to today, we need to know how biology has developed, why some things are thought to be true and other things not. But the great thing is, whoever you are, is, as you mentioned, the sense of meaning you get if you can see how things developed during history.
