In this episode, our Associate Editor Cláudia Vilhena talks with three authors of the method Starfysh, a computational toolbox combining spatial transcriptomics and histology data.During their chat, Siyu, Yinou and Lingling, all at different stages of their academic path, dig into the layers of Starfysh and its relevance for cancer research. They also share the struggles of peer review, the wonders of collaborative work and how this experience shaped their, sure-to-be fantastic, academic careers. Hosted on Acast.

On our very first episode of the new podcast series from Nature Biotechnology, our Associate Editor Cláudia Vilhena interviews Marcus Walker, first author of a fantastic story on engineered bacteria used to stain textiles.With an informal and honest touch, Marcus and Cláudia dive into the behind the scenes of the paper. From the inspiration to combine microbiology and fashion, passing by what went wrong at the bench, all the way to the economical and environmental implications of living biomaterials.For all those who struggle with measuring optical density, this episode is for you!
