Real-time quantitative proteomics with Devin Schweppe (#53)
November 18, 2020
In this episode, Jacob Schreiber interviews Devin Schweppe about the analysis of mass spectrometry data in the field of proteomics. They begin by delving into the different types of mass spectrometry methods, including MS1, MS2, and, MS3, and the reasons for using each. They then discuss a recent paper from Devin, Full-Featured, Real-Time Database Searching Platform Enables Fast and Accurate Multiplexed Quantitative Proteomics that involved building a real-time system for quantifying proteomic samples from MS3, and the types of analyses that this system allows one to do.
How 23andMe finds identical-by-descent segments with William Freyman (#52)
October 27, 2020
In this episode Will Freyman talks about identity-by-descent (IBD): how it’s used at 23andMe, and how the templated positional Burrows-Wheeler transform can find IBD segments in the presence of genotyping and phasing errors.
Basset and Basenji with David Kelley (#51)
October 7, 2020
In this episode, Jacob Schreiber interviews David Kelley about machine learning models that can yield insight into the consequences of mutations on the genome. They begin their discussion by talking about Calico Labs, and then delve into a series of papers that David has written about using models, named Basset and Basenji, that connect genome sequence to functional activity and so can be used to quantify the effect of any mutation.
