This IPM podcast highlights the impressive work of Lucas Santana dos Santos, director of bioinformatics and an assistant professor at Northwestern University’s Feinberg School of Medicine. Professor dos Santos discusses the origins and recent developments of molecular tumor classification techniques and how analyzing epigenetic signatures is enabling clinicians to diagnose and treat cancer patients more effectively. This illuminating conversation examines how classifiers are developed and touches on the role of various technologies including the workhorse methylation microarray, in addition to the challenges of creating a universal tumor classifier.

This IPM podcast unpacks some of the important work being done by Emma Johnson PhD Assistant Professor | Department of Psychiatry Washington University School of Medicine - we discuss her mission to elucidate the genetic architecture of psychiatric disorders, particularly focusing on substance use and addictions. We hear about her ongoing research in understanding commonly used drugs such as alcohol and cannabis and the relationships between substance use disorders and other psychiatric disorders and mental health conditions, including schizophrenia, suicidal thoughts and behaviors, and chronic pain.

In this new Inside Precision Medicine Podcast episode, sponsored by Illumina, we speak with Dr. Julio Monterrey, a Stanford-trained, board-certified psychiatrist and neuroscientist who specializes in diagnosing and treating complex cases. Dr. Monterrey is a keen observer of medical technology who has adopted pharmacogenetic (PGx) testing as a regular part of patient history taking. Through his experience, Dr. Monterrey has seen substantial benefits from PGx testing for his patients and his practice. He is now an advocate for wider adoption of PGx screening to guide and improve patient care. We spoke with Dr. Monterrey to hear what he has learned working with PGx testing in his psychiatry practice. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
