Ep27. Elisabeth Yaneske - Using data science to understand human cells mechanisms

This week, Karen is joined by Elisabeth Yaneske, Principal Lecturer in Computer Science at Teesside University. In this episode, they talk about Elisabeth’s research that aims at curing diseases using data science. You will hear about genes expression, the advantages of using data science to model human cells rather than animal testing and touch on what working in academia means.   Enjoy!   ************************  Show Notes:  ************************  Elisabeth’s website: https://www.sniffyfacesart.com/ Read on  Computational biology: https://journals.plos.org/plosbiology/article?id=10.1371/journal.pbio.2002050  The poly-omics of ageing: https://bmcbioinformatics.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s12859-018-2383-z  Protein folding: https://deepmind.com/blog/article/alphafold-a-solution-to-a-50-year-old-grand-challenge-in-biology
