from Mizter Rad Show · host Rad House
On this episode of Mizter Rad Show, our host Mizter Rad invites Sajung Yun, a biotech entrepreneur and Johns Hopkins University professor, to discuss the concept of creating a digital version of you and all your genes, aka digital twin, to better predict and treat diseases. Sajung shares his personal story of discovering his father's cancer could have been predictable and preventable through DNA analysis, which led him on a mission to promote preventive medicine. He discusses the features of a DNA-based digital twin, such as real-time searchability and simulation, that allow for personalized medicine and choosing the right drug based on an individual's genetic makeup. The duo also dives into the technical aspects of gene editing with CRISPR CAS Nine and the differences between genotyping and sequencing. Tune in to learn more about the future of preventive medicine and protecting sensitive genetic information.
