Abstract

Scientific discovery is entering a new era—one where AI doesn’t just assist researchers but actively drives breakthroughs. At Superbio.ai, we are building an AI scientist: a multi-agent system that understands scientific challenges, runs computational experiments, and delivers actionable insights. This talk will explore how AI can automate scientific reasoning, optimize model selection, and accelerate discovery across biopharma, synthetic biology, and molecular design. We’ll discuss the technological foundations of this vision, real-world applications, and what’s next for AI-powered research. What if AI could design the next generation of therapeutics? Let’s talk about how we’re making that possible.

Speaker Bio:
Berke Buyukkucak is a researcher and entrepreneur specializing in computational biology and machine learning for life sciences. His work focuses on applying generative AI to scientific discovery. He has led AI-driven research and development efforts, collaborating with academic institutions and biopharma companies to advance computational methods in drug discovery and synthetic biology.
