Spaces Unleashed is a live show from Twitter that we run Tuesday at 7:00 PM Mountain Time on Tuesday.  Our patrons get early access to the recordings, but we have now decided to share the fun and exciting conversations as bonus content for our podcast subscribers.
Who is Dr. Samantha Wilson?
From her website: https://swils6.github.io/Samantha-L-Wilson/

I am a postdoctoral research fellow under Dr. Michael Hoffman at Princess Margaret Cancer Centre within the University Health Network (UHN). I previously completed my PhD in Medical Genetics at the University of British Columbia under Dr. Wendy Robinson.

I am interested in omics data to understand the etiology of pregnancy and fetal pathologies and use that data to develop predictive models. Currently, I am working with bioinformatics and machine learning approaches to analyze DNA methylation data to give insights into pathogenesis and develop predictive signatures of preterm birth. I am using these data to build predictive signatures that will be usable in the clinical setting.

I am interested in integrating omics data in many types of pregnancy complications to increase our understanding of placental development through gestation, understand how pregnancy complications arise, how each of these complications relate to each other and the heterogeneity present within each clinical class of complication.
