2nd Annual AI-Powered Innovation in Protein and Antibody Therapeutics Symposium
About this event
A full day in Cambridge on machine learning applied to protein and antibody design, from in silico screening to moving computationally designed proteins toward the clinic. Seven invited speakers plus eight selected oral presenters competing for more than $5,000 in prizes.
The AIPAT symposium sits exactly where Kendall Square's two specialities meet: machine learning and biologics discovery. This is the second annual edition, run by Sino Biological under its BioLink Events programme.
Scientific focus
Machine learning models for protein and antibody design, in silico screening, and the practical problem of moving computationally designed proteins toward clinical use.
Speakers
- Opening keynote: Dr. Diane Joseph-McCarthy, Boston University
- Scientific keynote: Dr. Abigail Lytton-Jean, MIT Koch Institute
- Industry keynote: Dr. Matthew Bakalar, Basecamp Research
- Also presenting: Dr. Daniel Bedinger of Carterra, Dr. Leo Wan of Ranomics, Dr. Will Cao of Pando Bioscience, and Devan Shah of RNAV8 Bio
Format
Seven invited talks plus eight selected oral presentations competing for more than $5,000 in prizes, with exhibitors present and a happy hour reception closing the day. Expected attendance is around 120. The abstract submission deadline was August 31, 2026.
