Research on Tap: AI for Life Sciences

  • Starts: 4:00 pm on Wednesday, October 15, 2025
  • Ends: 6:00 pm on Wednesday, October 15, 2025
Advances in AI are having a growing impact across a wide range of scientific disciplines, including the life sciences. The emergence of large foundational models, including large language models and those trained on biological sequences, is unlocking new possibilities in synthetic biology, protein engineering, biomarker discovery, and more. The AI in life sciences market is valued at over $12 billion annually and is expected to more than double by 2030, driven by demand for faster drug discovery, personalized medicine, and more efficient clinical trials. Join us for this Research on Tap event, where BU faculty will share how AI is driving new discoveries in their research.
