Charlotte Deane | Bioinformatics, Deepmind’s AlphaFold 2, and Llamas
Charlotte Deane | Bioinformatics, Deepmind's AlphaFold 2, and Llamas
#datascience #ai
Charlotte Deane (Oxford University) talks about statistical approaches to bioinformatics, the evolution of Google Deepmind's AlphaFold 2 & its place in protein informatics deep learning landscape. She also describes humanizing antibodies, and the increasing role of software engineers in statistical research groups. The topic of llamas, camels, and alpacas (and their unique place in proteomics research) makes a surprise visit.
