Following on from the successful Festival of Biologics Basel last November, InstaDeep presented its DeepChain protein design platform at the prestigious Festival of Biologics San Diego this 9-11 March, as part of the company’s planned expansion into the US. 

InstaDeep was a Gold sponsor of “America’s most exciting biologics event”, which included a diverse agenda of interactive workshops, insightful panel discussions and ground-breaking keynotes. 

Senior members of the DeepChain team showcased how the AI-powered platform accelerates protein research and protein-based drug development, and ran many live product demos at the company’s booth throughout the 3-day event.

  • Dr Marcin J. Skwark, InstaDeep’s Bioinformatics Lead, presented a talk on DeepChain’s role in democratising access to AI for protein engineering.

Reflecting on the event, Nicolás commented, “the Festival of Biologics was a great event with an excellent calibre of attendees.  We had many interesting conversations about DeepChain’s AI-powered capabilities and future possibilities, and look forward to continuing those discussions soon”.
