Episode 12 - Vlad Cojocaru: Simulating transcriptional regulation, returning to our home countries, and the scales of the genome
Manage episode 422984037 series 3555369
In the twelfth episode, Vlad Cojocaru and I discuss how the simulation field can integrate further layers of complexity in modeling transcription control and genome organization in humans. Vlad shares his insights on the computational biology of transcription factors, including DNA-mediated allostery and pioneer transcription factors, which are crucial for cellular reprogramming. Our discussion then shifts to the underexplored topic of researchers' returning to our home countries as group leaders. We examine the hopes, fears, and conditions for success in making this transition, aiming to rewrite common narratives from our unique perspectives.
