The importance of DNA damage in all areas of disease and the potential for personally tailored oncological treatments based on the analysis of DNA damage using machine learning, with Dr Anna Poetsch

This week we speak to Anna Postsch. Anna is a group leader at the
biotechnology center at the University Dresden! Her group employs
computational techniques and machine learning approaches to assess
and model DNA damage and repair processes, mutagenesis and genome
editing to develop clinical applications. We also had some
interesting conversations about taking machine learning methods
into medicine and the security and trust surrounding machine
learning. Dr Poetsch also discusses her diverse background and
interesting career journey to her current position!! Listen along
to find out all about her academic background, her research and
insight into applying ML in the biomedical world. Anna's
