In this episode, Marie Sadler talks
about her recent Cell Genomics paper, Multi-layered genetic approaches to
identify approved drug targets.
Previous studies have found that the drugs that target a gene linked to the
disease are more likely to be approved. Yet there are many ways to define what
…
In this episode,
David Dylus talks about
Read2Tree,
a tool that builds alignment matrices and phylogenetic trees from raw
sequencing reads.
By leveraging the database of orthologous genes called OMA, Read2Tree bypasses traditional, time-consuming steps such as genome assembly, annotation and all-ve…
This is the second episode in the AlphaFold series, originally recorded on February 14, 2022,
with Janani Durairaj, a postdoctoral
researcher at the University of Basel.
Janani talks about how she used shape-mers and topic modelling to discover
classes of proteins assembled by AlphaFold 2 that we…
This is the third and final episode in the AlphaFold series, originally recorded on February 23, 2022,
with Amelie Stein, now an associate professor at the University of Copenhagen.
In the episode, Amelie explains what 𝛥𝛥G is, how it informs us
whether a particular protein mutation affects its st…
Today on the podcast we have Tomasz Kociumaka and Dominik Kempa,
the authors of the preprint
Collapsing the Hierarchy of Compressed Data Structures: Suffix Arrays in Optimal Compressed Space.
The suffix array is one of the foundational data structures in bioinformatics,
serving as an index that a…
