Talking Machines: Machine learning in biology, with Microsoft’s Jennifer Listgarten

In episode seventeen we talk with Jennifer Listgarten of Microsoft Research New England about her work using machine learning to answer questions in biology.
Recently, she’s used machine learning to make CRISPR more efficient and sort populations in GWAS studies. We take a question from a listener about the development of computational biology and Ryan gives us some great advice on how to get into grad school (Spoiler alert: apply to the lab, not the program.)
