186: How Generative AI Accelerates Protein Design for Biotech Discovery with Elise de Reus - Part 2
Imagine unlocking a world where designing custom proteins is not only feasible - but faster, smarter, and more powerful than ever before, thanks to artificial intelligence.
As the promise of programmable biology takes center stage, AI-driven protein engineering is rapidly moving from theoretical dream to industry standard.
In this episode, David Brühlmann sits down with Elise de Reus, co-founder of Cradle, whose ground-breaking platform has become a go-to for luminaries at pharma giants, as well as leaders in agriculture and industrial biotech. Elise’s journey bridges hands-on scientific discovery with entrepreneurial vision, and she’s on a mission to make biology a foundational pillar of a more sustainable and equitable world.
Here are three reasons you can’t miss this episode:
- AI Unmasks the Black Box: Elise explains how Cradle’s platform isn’t just about predictive power - it offers transparency and actionable insights, allowing scientists to see why models perform as they do, and how to interpret and trust their outputs.
- From Hype to Real-World Impact: You’ll hear real examples of AI accelerating everything from pandemic preparedness and antivenom development, to sustainable raw materials - plus candid advice on scaling AI adoption across diverse project teams.
- Blueprints for Biotech Founders: Elise shares hard-won lessons on transforming scientific innovation into a thriving company, including the counterintuitive power of targeting “mission impossible” challenges and the priceless value of early, unfiltered feedback.
Ready to future-proof your protein engineering with generative AI? Press play to take home Elise’s practical framework for evaluating tools, overcoming organizational hurdles, and crafting a winning adoption strategy, before the innovation curve pulls away.
