In Silico #002
Recent advancements in computation are transforming the biomolecular sciences - from fine simulations of molecular structure and drug discovery, to coarse-grained systems analysis of complex biochemical, metabolic, or genetic networks. We can now accomplish in days what once took large teams of chemists and biologists months to design.
Join us to discuss the future of biology and drug development with flash talks from:
Sebastian Schmon (Latent Labs) - Latent-X: An Atom-level Frontier Model for De Novo Protein Binder Design
Amy Lu (UC Berkeley) - Repurposing Protein Folding Models for All-Atom Generation via Latent Space Compression
Dominik Dekleva (AstraZeneca) - Synthesis-Aware Molecular Generation with REINVENT
Simon Mathis (Cambridge) - Accelerating Biomolecular Modeling with AtomWorks and RF3
Schedule
6:00pm: Doors open.
6:30pm: Flash Talks start.
7:40pm: Pizza and Drinks.
~8:30pm: End, moving to the Pub.
