Next AI in Bio Forum 2026

​What is everyone actually building in AI in Bio, outside protein folding, drug design, and virtual cells?

​That question is why we're running the Next AI in Bio Forum 2026.

​So many papers drop every day that genuinely interesting work just gets buried. So we picked four topics we think sit at the frontier: the ones that still feel futuristic, but are closer than you'd guess.

​The four topics

• ​Invasive Neural Decoding & Connectomics

• ​Brain-Computer Interfaces

• ​AI Co-scientists in Practice

• ​Clinical Trial Outcome Prediction

​Who it's for:
You don't need to be an expert to follow along. Whether you're coming from ML, business, or clinical — or just curious — there's something here for you. Every talk has dedicated time for questions and discussion.

​Builders and researchers, same room
Deep tech doesn't move without both. After the talks, the afternoon opens up for networking.
