Unlocking the Future — AI’s Transformative Role in Life Sciences

Artificial Intelligence is reshaping the landscape of life sciences—from accelerating drug discovery and diagnostics to revolutionizing bioinformatics and laboratory automation. This dynamic panel brings together three trailblazers at the intersection of AI and life sciences to explore how intelligent technologies are driving innovation, improving patient outcomes, and redefining scientific workflows.

• Raj Balasundaram, GVP of AI Innovations at Verint, brings a strategic perspective on how AI is being deployed across industries, with insights into its scalable applications in healthcare and life sciences.
• Randy Julian, CEO and Chief Scientific Officer of Indigo BioAutomation, offers deep expertise in automating complex analytical workflows and integrating AI into laboratory environments to enhance precision and throughput.

• Troy Hawkins, Senior Director Computational Biology & Data Science at Mercy BioAnalytics, Adjunct Assistant Professor, Department of Surgery at Indiana University School of Medicine   

Join us for a thought-provoking conversation on the opportunities, challenges, and ethical considerations of AI in life sciences—and what the future holds for researchers, clinicians, and patients alike.
