SLAS 2022: Barriers remain to AI adoption in life sciences
The discussion touched on several major themes involving AI and its impact on the life sciences, from training up the next generation of scientists in AI to data-sharing across systems from different vendors. The panel even proposed that competitors share data on negative studies in a dedicated journal, for which Charles Fracchia, CEO of data automation firm BioBright, proposed the tongue-in-cheek name Journal of Negative Results.

SLAS 2022: Diagnostics tech should be based on clinical need
Traditionally, scientists and engineers create a technology, find a biological application for it, and publish it in a big academic journal. For companies, the cycle is a bit different: a company creates a technology, most likely for life sciences research, and then years (if not decades) later, someone discovers a clinical application for it.
