Meet Graham Lee, who has decided to investigate research software engineering  for his PhD thesis. I met Graham at the RSE conference in Newcastle, UK late 2022 where he presented his work in form of an "inverted" talk (i.e. driven by the audience). 
Since there are not many people who make RSEs a subject of study and a PhD thesis, I caught up with Graham after the conference. In our conversation we discuss his thesis and questions such as: is RSE actually a distinct role/discipline and what the future might hold.
