S3E1: The "Dark Genome" with Dr. Rosana Kapeller-Lieberman

For the third season of Theory and Practice , we wanted to ask: what lies ahead for the intersection of life sciences and data sciences in the next ten years? In this episode, we explore the vastness of the "dark genome" and why "junk DNA" has been overlooked for so many decades. Our guest is Dr. Rosana Kapeller-Lieberman , A GV Fellow and the CEO of Rome Therapeutics with over 25 years’ experience in science and therapeutics. Rosana discusses her team's scientific approach, and how they have tackled investigating the 60% of our genome that we previously thought was just filler, or repeatable DNA. Theory and Practice is a presentation of GV and Google AI . This season we'll dive deep into the languages of life through explorations of the "dark genome", genome editing, protein folding, the future of aging, and more. Hosted by Anthony Philippakis (Venture Partner at GV) and Alex Wiltschko (Staff Research Scientist with Google AI), Theory and Practice opens the doors to the cutting edge of biology and computer science through conversations with leaders in the field.
