This episode was recorded in the beautiful Island of Crete, at CytoReason's employee conference, the CytoSummit.

CytoReason's Co-founder Shai Shen-Orr hosts AION Labs CTO Yair Benita. 

Yair is a computational biologist who spent more than 20 years studying biology through omics and clinical data in an effort to piece together mechanisms of human disease. He’s been leading computational teams in drug discovery at CytoReason, Compugen, and Merck. 

In this candid conversation with Shai, Yair reflects on the highs and lows of his professional journey over the past two decades, as well as the broader industry landscape.

Key questions discussed include:
  • What major shift did Keytruda's development introduce to the industry?
  • How did pharma's 'Kodak moment’ come about?
  • What needs to happen in pharma R&D so data is no longer JUST supporting decisions, but actually driving them?
And plenty of other industry gems. Enjoy!
