Algorithms and the patterns of life

Science Stories is visiting the European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL) in Heidelberg and asks some of the leading researchers about their work. This week science journalist Jens Degett interviews Dr Anna Kreshuk about how she and her research group is working with algorithms and image analysis to understand fundamentally how life works from the most primitive to the most advanced organisms and how living systems function together from individual organisms to ecosystems. This podcast is supported by a Maria Leptin / EMBO Science Journalism Fellowship.
