    E12 How to Use Technology to Improve Research with Aleksandra Sokolowska

    E12 How to Use Technology to Improve Research with Aleksandra Sokolowska

    SEED2019 is a scrappy conference targeting innovation within the science publishing & funding process. It will bring together a diverse set of stakeholders and be followed by an incubator to implement the best ideas. We discuss problems and ideas on how to best solve the most pressing problems of academia.

    Opening up the opaque peer review with Sam & Daniela from PREreview
    Peer review is opaque and a large frustration for many scientists. Preprints are becoming more prevalent, but we still need to assess them critically. We shed light on some of the problems and solutions to this with preprint peer review clubs. PREreview is a platform to record these journal club conversations so that the rest of the world can benefit from them too.

    09 How collaborating with robots will speed up biomedical research with Oskari Vinko
    Oskari and Flavio talk about how robots can help humans in biomedical research. UniteLabs is building lab automation systems to automate boring tasks so the highly trained researchers can focus on more high-level activities. We also talk about other bottlenecks in biomedical research and revisit some old friends from previous podcast guests.

    07 Translating Science from Academia and the Future of Medicine with Prof. Ernst Hafen
    In the 2nd part of the interview with Prof. Ernst Hafen we learn about how the birth of the Bio-Technopark Schlieren shows that if innovative entrepreneurs come together with great scientists, magic can happen. We also learn about a big bottleneck in translating science from academia into startups and how the future of medicine is personal.

    06 Speeding up biomedical research by sharing protocols with Lenny Teytelman
    Lenny is the founder and CEO of protocols.io, where scientists can freely share scientific protocols with each other. Similarly to github, others can then try them out in their own lab, comment on them, improve them or fork them. This leads to many benefits for both the original author as well as the scientists who get access to new protocols. 11,000 scientists are already signed up and more are joining each day.

    05 How Citizen Science Can Transform Drug Discovery with Ernst Hafen

    05 How Citizen Science Can Transform Drug Discovery with Ernst Hafen
    In this episode, Prof. Ernst Hafen from ETH Zurich tells us how citizens can play a very important role in biomedical research and drug discovery. Recruiting the right patients for a study is a big challenge for biotech and pharma companies. He presents us his radical initiative midata.coop, which allows patients to store their health data in a secure way and allows them to participate in clinical studies. Part 1 of a very interesting interview.
