Welcome to Episode 28 of The Genomics Lab! On today's episode we talk to Dr.Patrick CN Martin who is a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Copenhagen. He completed his PhD in Dr Radu Zabets lab in 2020 where he investigated the binding mechanisms of transcription factors to DNA. His research involved development of an R package, ChIPAnalyser. A user-friendly, versatile and powerful R/Bioconductor package predicting and modelling the binding of TFs to DNA. ChIPanalyser performs similarly to state-of-the-art tools, but is an explainable model and provides biological insights into binding mechanisms of transcription factors to DNA. His research focused on investigating the binding mechanisms of three TFs that are known architectural proteins CTCF, BEAF-32 and su(Hw) in three Drosophila cell lines (BG3, Kc167 and S2). Aside from his research, Patrick enjoys coding, astrophysics and is now working in the exciting field of spatial transcriptomics! We also discuss the use of clinical data in genomics research, learning to code and bioinformatics. Hope you all enjoy! (See below for links)
