“It's a real power of some of the translational research that's being done that you can not only answer interesting, fundamental biological questions, but also impact people directly in the process.”
In this week’s episode, our CEO Chris Wigley is joined by Dr Patrick Short, genomic researcher, bioinformatician and Co-Founder and CEO of Sano Genetics. For his PhD Patrick worked on the Deciphering Developmental Disorders (DDD) project, with his findings and methods being used in Genomics England's 100k analysis, and he has designed and taught courses on machine learning and data science at Cambridge Spark.
Today Patrick talks about the human aspect of research, precision medicine research and industry access to data. He also discusses the Deciphering Developmental Disorders project and his work with Sano Genetics.
