- Hosted by Biochemistry Society
Join UCL Biochemistry Society and UCL MedTech Society for an exclusive fireside chat with Professor David Jones, Professor of Bioinformatics at UCL and a researcher involved in the development of AlphaFold.
AlphaFold transformed structural biology, opening up unprecedented possibilities for understanding proteins. But what comes next?
Drawing on decades of experience at the intersection of AI and protein science, Professor Jones will share his perspective on how the field has evolved and where it is heading next.
We'll explore some of the biggest questions shaping the future of the field:
- Beyond AlphaFold: What challenges remain in predicting protein structure and function?
- Can AI design life? How close are we to creating entirely new proteins?
- From AI to medicine: How could these advances transform drug discovery and therapeutics?
- What's next? Where lie the biggest opportunities for AI in biology?
The session will conclude with an audience Q&A, giving you the opportunity to put your questions directly to Professor Jones.
Whether you're interested in biochemistry, AI, drug discovery or biotechnology, join us to explore how AI is reshaping the future of life sciences.
