Featured Speaker:
Richard Bonneau
Vice President of Machine Learning for Drug Discovery, Genentech Computational Sciences
I combine biophysics and computational methods to build new approaches to biomolecular design and drug discovery. I have a background in computational structural biology and a current focus on developing machine learning methods to power drug discovery. I have also led teams that develop computational frameworks for genomics data analysis and this led to a deep specialization in the inference and modeling of biological networks. My group now combines machine learning approaches with physical models of key biological processes to make progress on molecular and biomolecular design.
