In this episode of the Epigenetics Podcast, we caught up with Enrico Glaab from the University of Luxemburg to talk about his work on the development of integrative machine learning tools for neurodegenerative diseases.\nThe work of Dr. Enrico Glaab focuses on neurodegenerative disorders like Parkinson\u2019s and Alzheimer\u2019s disease. In his group his team works on the development of software tools to analyze molecular, clinical and neuroimaging data for those diseases that can be used and applied easily by scientists and deliver publication ready figures. More recently, Enrico Glaab's group got interested in the influence of Epigenetics in Parkinson's and Alzheimer's disease.\nIn this Episode we discuss how Enrico Glaab made the switch from wet-lab to becoming a bioinformatician and how he uses integrative machine learning tools to find approaches to not only cure but also be able to detect neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's or Parkinson's early on.\n\xa0\nReferences\n\nEnrico Glaab, Reinhard Schneider (2015) RepExplore: addressing technical replicate variance in proteomics and metabolomics data analysis (Bioinformatics) DOI: 10.1093/bioinformatics/btv127\n\n\nEnrico Glaab, Reinhard Schneider (2015) Comparative pathway and network analysis of brain transcriptome changes during adult aging and in Parkinson\u2019s disease (Neurobiology of Disease) DOI: 10.1016/j.nbd.2014.11.002\n\n\nSandra K\xf6glsberger, Maria Lorena Cordero-Maldonado, \u2026 Enrico Glaab (2017) Gender-Specific Expression of Ubiquitin-Specific Peptidase 9 Modulates Tau Expression and Phosphorylation: Possible Implications for Tauopathies (Molecular Neurobiology) DOI: 10.1007/s12035-016-0299-z\n\n\nEnrico Glaab, Paul Antony, \u2026 Manuel Buttini (2019) Transcriptome profiling data reveals ubiquitin-specific peptidase 9 knockdown effects (Data in Brief) DOI: 10.1016/j.dib.2019.104130\n\xa0\n\nRelated Episodes\n\nEpigenetic Influence on Memory Formation and Inheritance (Isabelle Mansuy)\n\n\nCpG Islands, DNA Methylation, and Disease (Sir Adrian Bird)\n\n\nEpigenetics & Glioblastoma: New Approaches to Treat Brain Cancer (Lucy Stead)\n\n\nCancer and Epigenetics (David Jones)\n\n\xa0\nContact\n\nActive Motif on Twitter\n\n\nEpigenetics Podcast on Twitter\n\n\nActive Motif on LinkedIn\n\n\nActive Motif on Facebook\n\n\nEmail: podcast@activemotif.com
