Agentic AI for Computational Biology

​Agentic AI for Computational Biology — Weekly Research Sessions

​A recurring hands-on series introducing computational biologists to AI coding agents: tools that write, run, and debug code on your behalf so you can focus on the science.

​What we cover each session:

• ​Hands-on training with AI coding agents — Claude Code (Anthropic), Codex (OpenAI), and Phylo/Biomni Lab (biology-native)

• ​Live computational biology projects and more

• ​Project discussions and troubleshooting — bring your own data and problems

• ​Building sustainable AI infrastructure for computational biology research in Africa

​This is not about replacing bioinformaticians — it is about amplifying what every researcher can do.
