EP 152: Unlocking the secrets of gene regulation with Nadav Ahituv, Director of the Institute of Human Genetics at UCSF

This week, we’re thrilled to welcome Nadav Ahituv, the Director of the Institute of Human Genetics at the University of California, San Francisco. Patrick and Nadav discuss his research on gene regulation, including his intriguing work on bats and their unique metabolic adaptations – and what that means for human health. They also discuss the evolution of our understanding of genetics, from ancient DNA insights to the mechanisms driving human traits, and how these discoveries could pave the way for future therapies.
