The Metabolomist podcast biocrates life sciences

In this episode, Alice Limonciel and Robert Nagourney discuss the benefits of looking into phenotype rather than genotype when studying cancer, how metabolomics contributes to the patient’s journey through personalized medicine, and the ways that survival prediction can be interpreted.

In this episode, Alice Limonciel and Haley Chatelaine discuss the benefits of using metabolomics to study multiple diseases, the fascinating world of fat-soluble vitamins and their absorption in patients with metabolic syndrome.
This episode was created in collaboration with the Early Career Members (ECM) of the Metabolomics Association of North America (MANA) and begins with a conversation about life as an early career scientist with Arpana Vaniya and Nicole Prince, who are restively chair and vice-chair of MANA-ECM.

In this episode, Alice Limonciel and Sapna Sharma discuss how to make the most of the omic data already generated in cohort studies, the place of metabolomics in multi-omics strategies, and how to go beyond associations and towards causal relationships and their implications for medicine.

In this episode, Alice Limonciel and Karel Kalecký discuss what to look out for when planning a metabolomics experiment with brain tissue samples from biobanks, what characterizes Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s disease at the metabolic level, and his experience navigating biological interpretation as a computer scientist turned metabolomist.

In this episode, Alice Limonciel and Gary Patti discuss the applications of flux metabolomics to the study of cancer, the benefits of various biological models, and the potential of nutritional intervention to study and influence cancer metabolism.

In this episode, Alice Limonciel and Rachel Kelly discuss the relevance of metabolomics to the field of epidemiology, the challenges in combining metabolomic studies for large meta-analyses, and the application of metabolomics to create metabotypes of asthma.
