EVQLV, Inc., an artificial intelligence-enabled technology company accelerating biologics discovery, announced today a collaboration with Twist Bioscience Corporation (NASDAQ: TWST), a company enabling customers to succeed through its offering of high-quality synthetic DNA using its silicon platform, to discover novel antibody-based therapies.
Brett Averso (CTO, EVQLV) and Bhoomika Kumar (SciTech intern, EVQLV) teamed up to provide a high-level overview of how EVQLV’s evolutionary algorithm works.
EVQLV’s CEO, Andrew Satz, joined Kerrin Black of the Talent Finders Podcast to discuss his entrepreneurial journey, some of the challenges facing AI for drug discovery, his legacy and much more.
Andrew Satz, CEO of EVQLV, explains how our technology works, with specific attention to our progress on COVID-19.
EVQLV’s very own Andrew Satz (CEO and CO-Founder) was a guest on the M2 Techcast of MITechNews.com with Mike Brennan and Matt Roush. He discussed our work on coronavirus, what is and isn’t artificial intelligence, the application of AI, and our mission at EVQLV.
BioIDEA and EVQLV hosted a panel discussion and Q&A on the role of emerging technologies in the fight against COVID-19.
EVQLV, has submitted their first panel of candidate therapeutic antibody sequences, comprised of DNA sequences encoding for potentially therapeutic antibodies against the new coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2. These DNA sequences were generated using computational antibody design, a method which combines mathematics, statistics, and computer science to identify high-affinity antibodies.
Brett Averso, CTO, and I recently had a follow up discussion on our first coronavirus chat. Brett provided visualizations and commentary on coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2), ACE2, SARS-CoV-2 with SARS overlay, and antibody fragments to help people better understand the threat we’re currently facing, as well as put it in its proper context. Brett also discussed the role AI can play in finding an effective treatment for COVID-19.
Columbia Data Science Institute recently covered EVQLV’s work towards developing therapeutic candidates against COVID-19 with Immunoprecise Antibodies.
Legitimate concerns notwithstanding, Andrew Satz and I recently discussed how EVQLV understands and utilizes AI. During the discussion, Andrew proposed the idea that far from stripping us of our humanity, AI may allow us to become more human.
