Episode 2 - Dr Sara Jane Dunn

Episode 2 - Dr Sara Jane Dunn

To celebrate the International Day of women and girls in science , in this week’s podcast we have Dr Sara-Jane Dunn. Sara is a scientist based within the Biological Computation group at Microsoft Research Cambridge, and an affiliate researcher at the Wellcome Trust – Medical Research Council Stem Cell Institute, University of Cambridge. She trained as a mathematician and got a PhD in Computer Science from the University of Oxford. Currently Sara-Jane works at the interface between mathematics, computer science and biology, specifically developing a theory of biology as computation, in which the biochemistry of the cell performs information processing in the service of decision-making. To fulfil her goal she collaborates with research experimentalists at the Universities of Cambridge and Padova to investigate stem cell decision-making throughout Development. The goal of her research is ultimately to make cells programmable, which could fundamentally transform medicine, agriculture and even the ways we generate energy.
