🚀 Bio x AI isn’t new… but 10 years ago, it was. Eric Kelsic saw the wave coming, and cofounded Dyno Therapeutics. Now, he’s using #AI to solve in vivo gene delivery — and challenging the way biotech is built. 👉 Read his interview with Benchling CEO Sajith Wickramasekara: https://lnkd.in/e89xXhqn #Transcribed

🇫🇷 What an event! This year’s #ParisDigitalScienceDay was our biggest yet, bringing together R&D leaders, scientists, innovators, and even the largest life sciences VC firm in France — all to explore the future of biotech. It was inspiring to see the French biotech community come together around the industry’s biggest questions: ⭐ Making #AI work: aligning data, workflows, and teams to unlock real potential ⭐ Accelerating discovery: real-world examples of reducing timelines from years to months ⭐ Adapting to the AI era: embrace change or risk being left behind Huge thank you to our moderator Nadine Bongaerts-Duportet, Ph.D., and our incredible speakers: Simon Turner (Sofinnova Partners) Elodie Pronier (OWKIN) Andrea Di Gioacchino (Phagos) Jean-Claude HAW-KING-CHON (Micropep Technologies) Erica Lieberman (Eligo Bioscience) Revital Rattenbach (4P-Pharma) zakaria D.

(OWKIN) Aurore Morello (OSE Immunotherapeutics) Eric Letouzé (One Biosciences) Narasimhan Aravamudhan (Zifo) Natasha Rostovtseva We can’t wait to be back — next time, in the summer! ☀️

#BenchlingAI is here. Your scientific command center with #AI agents and predictive models directly embedded into daily workflows. What’s new this year: ✔️ AI agents for documentation, data entry, deep research, and querying data across Benchling ✔️ Predictive models including Chai-1, BoltzGen, and AlphaFold 2 built into your scientific workflows ✔️ Turn PDFs, spreadsheets, and legacy reports into structured, usable data This is the beginning of an AI-powered future for the modern lab. And we’re just getting started. 👉 Learn what you can do with Benchling AI: https://lnkd.in/evRuiZgH

When you’re bringing #AI to an industry that’s complex and constantly changing, it all comes back to the customer — and deeply understanding their problems. On the No Priors podcast, Benchling CEO Sajith Wickramasekara explains his biggest piece of advice, and why he still spends 50% of his time talking to our customers. 🎙️ Watch the full conversation: https://lnkd.in/ebU8V-WP

“Most people aren’t really using that much #AI in R&D — yet.” Benchling CEO Sajith Wickramasekara talks about the concerns holding the industry back, and why the priority has to be building something that scientists trust and will actually use. 🎙️ Watch the full conversation: https://lnkd.in/ebU8V-WP
