New York City | Claude for Life Sciences
Predicting a structure takes seconds now. Deciding which binding pocket is worth a program still takes months.
We are spending an evening in that gap.
This one is hands-on and anchored in oncology. Early on, a computational biologist from a leading New York research institute opens a blank screen and works through a live analysis in front of the room: protein mutation analysis first, then scanning drug candidates. None of it is rehearsed. You will watch it get stuck in places, and honestly that is usually where you learn the most.
Then it is your turn. We break into groups by sub-field, so you end up sitting next to people who understand your problem before you finish describing it. We close with an open floor for anyone who wants to show what they have been building.
Who this is for:
Computational biologists and bioinformaticians, medicinal and computational chemists, translational researchers, and the engineers and product people building tools for all of them.
Never touched Claude before? Come anyway. Bringing a real problem from your work matters far more than experience with the tool.
Agenda:
5:00 - 5:30 · Arrive, get settled, get your laptop set up
5:30 - 6:00 · Kickoff: how research teams are using Claude right now, including where it falls short
6:00 - 6:30 · The live analysis, built from a blank screen
6:30 - 7:15 · Breakout working sessions by sub-field
7:15 - 7:45 · Open demos, for anyone who wants to show what they built
7:45 - 8:00 · Closing remarks, and time to keep talking
What to bring
A laptop
A real problem from your own work, even a half-formed one
Your host:
Brandon Slicklein is the Claude Community Ambassador for New York City and co-founder of AuraPath AI, an AI-native enablement agency. His product and engineering work runs across fintech, legal, private equity, and education, and Claude sits inside nearly everything he builds. He started the New York community because the best conversations about this work happen in a room, not a thread. Come say hi when you arrive, he means it.
