Biomed. Reasoning Sys.
Technology Analyst
I am a Computationl Biologist creating Agentic Machine Learning based models in molecular biology, biotechnology, and synthetic biology. My background includes a doctorate in Computer Science and Masters in Computational Molecular Biology (Masters Thesis done at Stanford). I will be speaking on Agentic Models in biology in general and a specific model for inter and intracellular signaling in specific with applications in biomedicine and Synthetic Biology using reinforcement learning, causal reasoning, differential equation modeling of molecular dynamics, and interactions with bio-focussed neural net machine learning models. We will discuss where Agent based models in biology stand in the current research and where the research is going.

Agentic AI: A Biomodeling Revolution in the Making
This talk will introduce the development of artificial Agents to model biological phenomena in molecular biology, biotechnology, and synthetic biology incorporating reinforcement learning, differential equation modeling of molecular dynamics, and agentic bio-causal reasoning. Agent to agent interaction with the A2A and PoR protocols, and MCP and API interfaces to Machine Learning (Neural Network) Models including causal reasoning models and bio-specific models will be discussed. Synthetic biology deals with huge possibility spaces in terms of the combinatorics of nuceotide and proteomic sequences in proposed novel genes and proteins and how to constrain possibility spaces into computable functional novel genes, genetic circuits, gene regulatory networks and novel functional proteins will be discussed. Hence the sheer complexity of biological phenomena requires advanced Agentic AI and machine learning models to efficiently process, find patterns in, and reason about these complex systems with hundreds of thousands of variables, millions of connections, and potentially trillions of parameters. The current state of Agentic Bio research will be covered and where the research needs to go will be elucidated. Finally an application of Agentic Inter and Intra-cellular Signaling will be presented in detail to see the nuts and bolts of how Agentic AI can model a biological phenomenon with molecular biological, medical, and synthetic biological applications. The presenter’s background includes advanced degrees in computer science and computational molecular biology with experience in bio-computational modeling including a computational neuroscience project at Stanford where the neurogenetic and synaptic development of the C.elegans’ brain was modeled. Synthetic Biology: the possibility spaces are endless!

From Cells to Patients: Solving the Scale Mismatch in Virtual Biology
Drug discovery often measures biology at the cell level while interventions work at the tissue, organ, or whole-patient scale. This mismatch can make accurate cell-level predictions irrelevant in the clinic. This session dives into strategies to bridge that gap: multiscale modeling that nests single-cell dynamics within organ-level simulations, spatial transcriptomics that preserve context, and surrogate models that translate cell-level outputs into clinical biomarkers. Speakers will ask: how do we ensure virtual biology reflects not just what cells do in isolation, but how biology behaves in the real complexity of patients?
