Welcome to "The Science Of" Podcast, where students from the Jackie Robinson Family YMCA sit down with top scientists, doctors, and other leaders in the world of science from the globally renowned UCSD and the UCSD Moores Cancer Center in La Jolla, CA.
In this episode, Riley James, Haydee Arancibia-Hardwick, and Jeremiah Bosley sit down to discuss THE SCIENCE OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AND BIOLOGY with Dexter Pratt, a self-described "old school AI guy" who is now the Director of Software Development at the Ideker Lab at UCSD School of Medicine. The focus of the Ideker Lab is create artificially intelligent, mechanistic models of cancer and neurodegenerative diseases for translation of patient data to precision diagnosis and treatment. They seek to advance this goal by addressing fundamental questions in the field such as the genetic and molecular networks that promote disease, the charting of these networks, and how we use knowledge of these networks in intelligent systems for predicting the effects of genotype on phenotype. He is also a Director of the NDex Project, a public website where scientists and organizations can share, store, manipulate, and publish biological network knowledge.
