Abstract: Biotech lies at the intersection of rapid technological and life-scientific developments. Its central premise is alluring: leverage cutting-edge technologies and scientific discoveries and loosen the hold of disease over humanity.
Join for an informal chat about drugs, the organisations developing them and the individuals doing the work. What’s life like in a modern pharmaceutical company? Why would theoretical physicists be interested in joining one? And how do you make that transition?

Bio: Dom got his PhD in theoretical physics from Imperial College London\DSEMIC his thesis “Algebraic Constructions of 3d N=4 Coulomb Branches” was supervised by Amihay Hanany. He started moving to machine learning in 2019 as a research intern and is now Senior AI Research Scientist at Exscientia, a drug discovery pharmatech company, where he focuses on synthetic chemistry and accelerating drug development.
