Gordon Freedman and I both developed an interest in mitochondria due to our love of cycling and to understand the limits of performance. Whereas I sought to find a racer’s edge by delving into the biology underlying...
Episode #10
How are people fighting ongoing epidemics using genomics-based technologies such as PCR diagnostics and mRNA vaccines in a world where funding from the US and other rich countries is on the decline? My guest this week...
Episode #9
What happens when scientists come together and realize they didn’t have the data to back up their assumptions? Dino Dicarlo, my guest on this week’s Ion Genomics podcast, shares how he reacted when he found out that...
Episode #8
My guest this week, Johnny Yu, has seen firsthand how the new code-writing capabilities of LLMs has widened horizons for the use of AI in biology. Tahoe Bio, a company he cofounded, has built its own AI agents, which...
Episode #7
In 2024, Sid Sijbrandij got the news that no cancer patient wants to hear: his tumor was back and his doctors told him they had nothing left to offer. Sid, a tech entrepreneur who up until that point had been running...
Episode #6
“We right now are developing our technology to be able very soon to sequence roughly hundred-length proteins that are on each of those sensors within a 24-hour period. You can think about this as being essentially 10...
Episode #5
What kind of market share can Illumina expect when it launches its own MRD kits and is it worth the risk of annoying customers that also offer those tests? Why did liquid biopsy company stocks do so well in May? What...
Episode #4
“It's one extra step ahead of a single cell RNA-seq workflow where we can get all the information that we can get from standard Perturb-seq, but we also know the spatial location.” That’s how my guest this week, Arc...
Episode #3
Craig Venter, the renegade scientist who tried to beat the publicly-funded Human Genome Project with a private company — and nearly succeeded — died last week at 79. My guest this week, Jamie Shreeve, shadowed Venter...
Episode #2
Do AI models in biology have to get bigger to get better? And what can you do with more training, more computing power, and more outputs? Joining me this week to talk about MaxToki , a new AI-powered model that can...
Episode #1
Earlier this week I spoke with 10x Genomics CEO and Cofounder Serge Saxonov at the AACR meeting, where 10x launched Atera, its new instrument for spatial biology. In addition to hitting product pricing and specs, we...
