The virtual cell - what's the path?

Whole-cell modeling represents the ultimate goal in computational biology, yet we're far from achieving it. Join us for an intimate gathering of technical experts and a panel of leaders building critical components of the stack from single-cell foundation models and perturb-seq at scale to spatial technologies, self-driving labs, and multi-modal fusion to debate which pieces truly matter and pinpoint the real bottlenecks. Panelists: Daniel Bear — VP of AI, Noetik. Building OCTO-VirtualCell, foundation models for spatial biology trained on proprietary multi-modal patient data. Ravi Solanki — Co-founder & CEO, Prima Mente. Single-cell data generation, autonomous labs, and modality fusion for neurology. Jun Axup Penman — Co-founder, E11 Bio. Sequencing and imaging genomes in single cells at scale. Keoni Gandall — Founder & CEO, Nanala. Cloud-automated wet lab for synthetic biology; longtime voice on whole-cell modeling.
