Christopher Gaiteri, Ph.D., is Associate Professor of Psychiatry & Behavioral Sciences and Empire Innovation Scholar at SUNY Upstate Medical University. Dr. Gaiteri earned his undergraduate degree from Washington & Lee University and his doctorate from the University of Pittsburgh. He joined Rush University as assistant professor of neurological sciences and computational neuroscientist after serving as Research Scientist at the Allen Institute for Brain Science and Senior Scientist at Sage Bionetworks. In today's podcast, Dr. Gaiteri responds to the following questions: 1. What were the origins to your approach and how does it differ from the more traditional way of framing research about the onset and development of Alzheimer's disease? 2.  Statistical techniques such as factor analysis and canonical correlation were used in research to take a large number of measures of variables and allow those statistical techniques to sort out which of those variables covaried and which patterns emerged that could suggest relationships to be looked at more closely. In your approach using "big data" do you have a particular notion of which variables you select ought to covary? In other words, do you have a "pre-theory" that guides your selection of variables? 3.  Alzheimer's is nearly always associated with the aging process, perhaps implicitly arguing that the aging process alone is a causal agent for the onset and progression of the disease. More recently and not without some controversy, some researchers have suggested that aging itself should be considered a disease. From your perspective, does the question of age influence your view on how to go about framing analyses of data bearing on the inception and development of Alzheimer's? 4.  In your career to date, how has the leadership of organizations in which you have worked influenced you and your research? Are there characteristics of persons who hold leadership roles that you single out as especially important to your work?

Today's episode features a conversation with Juliane Schneider, Senior Bioinformatics Analyst and Data Liaison at Sage Bionetworks. The interview was conducted by Matthew Ismail, Editor in chief of the Charleston Briefings and Conference Director at the Charleston Conference.  Juliane obtained a dual degree in Library Science and Information Systems from Drexel University. This training, and her knowledge of databases, has helped her successfully navigate her career path over the years.  She currently works at Sage Bionetworks, a nonprofit that works mostly with NIH and with data collection, curation and making it available to users.  Juliane says, "she has always been interested in making things discoverable in some way." Juliane and Matthew discuss research data management and how time affects the research data cycle, how challenging it is to get in at the very beginning of the cycle, and the problems with grant funding of research data management. She believes research data management should be a line item in the operational budget of the university or institution. She also believes there is a great deal of responsibility when it comes to data and how algorithms are created, and the way data is searched that we need to be aware of. The open access and open data conversation of how to responsibly use data is not occurring often enough.

Jesse Wiley discusses his work on the TREAT-AD project and their attempt to identify new candidates for drug development to protect against Alzheimer's. Jesse explains that he and his team have identified 15 biological domains that are associated with the development of Alzheimer's (not 18 as I say in the podcast).  Intriguingly, Mitochondrial malfunction and chronic immune response rose to the top of the list of domains. Jesse also explains "pseudotime" which is a new tool for tracking the trajectory of disease development. Our discussion of mitochondrial malfunction led us to discussions  of epigenetic factors,  and the role of behavior and lifestyle interventions.

In Episode 15 of Hidden Forces, host Demetri Kofinas speaks with Dr. Eric Schadt. Eric Schadt is founder and CEO of Sema4, as well as Dean of Precision Medicine at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. During the course of his 20-year career, Dr. Eric Schadt has built genetics and systems biology groups at Merck. He built the computational biology group at Rosetta. He has served as co-founder of Sage Bionetworks and as Chief Science Officer of Pacific Biosciences. He now serves as the founder and CEO of Sema4. He has published more than 300 peer-reviewed papers in leading scientific journals, and he has contributed to a number of discoveries relating to the genetic basis of common human diseases such as diabetes, obesity and Alzheimer’s. In today’s conversation, we explore the information technology of biology – DNA – the world of genomics, where big data looms large. We begin by mapping the territory of the human genome and exploring the pathways of disease. We look to understand the ways in which complex genetic combinations express themselves as phenotypes such as height, bone structure, intelligence, and personality. How are these traits coded for? What are the instructions our body uses to repair a damaged cell? What blueprint does it consult before trying to grow new arteries? How does it know to regulate our appetite or when start us down the path of puberty? What happens when these instructions are damaged? How can the smallest difference in the order of life’s code make all the difference for our success, our happiness, and even our survival? 50 years have passed, between the discovery of the double-helix and the mapping of the first human genome. What progress have we made in the 15 years since? How has our ability to sequence new genomes created a paradigm shift in medicine? What is the role of big data and artificial intelligence in finding the correlations needed in order to treat malignancies and prevent diseases? What is the promise of genomics? What are the perils of big data in medicine? What stands between us and some superhuman future?

Data has the potential to help fuel social change across the world, yet many relevant datasets remain locked away and siloed across government agencies, nonprofits, and corporations. What kind of collaboration does it take to make this data available to different actors working to create change? In a series of TED-style talks, Melinda Rolfs of the MasterCard Center for Inclusive Growth, John Wilbanks of Sage Bionetworks, Greg Bloom of Civic Hall Labs and Open Referral, and ST Mayer of Code for America talk about how to develop not only the right tools, but also the right relationships to make data collaboration happen. Jake Porway of DataKind then leads a discussion on how we can collectively harness data for the greater good.

John Wilbanks, Chief Commons Officer of Sage Bionetworks, says “the very containers” that we used to put data in, “that kept it human-scale,” have been “blown to bits.” The question is: How do we pick up the pieces and reassemble them in the aftermath? In this "Resonance Test" podcast, Wilbanks and Continuum SVP Mike Dunkley dive down into the many issues surrounding healthcare data. “We basically throw darts at the dartboard with a blindfold on right now," says Wilbanks. “Using data, statistical modeling, and machine learning *has* to be better than that.” Together, Wilbanks and Dunkley talk about smartphones and increasing sample size in health research, the idea of a “credit union” for data, and the challenge of measuring the success of precision medicine. The work is, for the passionate Wilbanks, a very human-centric activity. “Health is personal," he says. "Experience of disease is personal. Lived experience is personal, and you can start to capture these lived experiences and aggregate them in ways that tell us a lot about disease that we didn't used to know.”

When researchers explore the human genome, they usually look for genetic causes of disease, but a global study being led by scientists at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai and Sage Bionetworks is looking for genes that might keep people healthy. Their study, the largest genome study to date, seeks to find people with genetic mutations that should have caused rare childhood diseases, but didn’t. Dubbed the Resilience Project, they are looking for clues in these genomes for why these people never became stricken. We spoke to Jason Bobe, associate professor and director of the Sharing Lab at the Icahn Institute and Department of Genetics and Genomic Sciences at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, about the study, what’s been learned so far, and how this may lead to new treatments for rare and deadly diseases.
