We’re excited to be back for another episode of the Life Sciences Today Podcast by Healthcare IT Today. My guest today is Tiffany Callahan, Lead Architect of Agentic AI Systems at SandboxAQ. As a physicist, I love her approach to Large Quantitative Models trained on physics, chemistry, biology, and math to model the real world.

Most of the companies in this space are building statistical models by:

• integrating large datasets for target identification by analyzing genomic and multi-omic data
• virtual screening to identify promising drug candidates
• novel molecule design and property prediction (toxicity, efficacy, pharmacokinetics)
• clinical trial optimization through patient selection and outcome prediction
• drug repurposing by finding new uses for existing drugs

Check out the main topics of discussion for this episode of the Life Sciences Today podcast:

• Tell me about your journey.
• Tell me about SAIR.
• Who are your customers?
• How do you create value?
• How do you capture value from customers?
• What are three things you want to do for your customers in the next 12-18 months?

Now, without further ado, we’re excited to share with you the next episode of the Life Sciences Today podcast.

We’re excited to be back for another episode of the Life Sciences Today Podcast by Healthcare IT Today. My guest today is Jeff Gombala, Founder and CEO at Evidexa. Jeff Gombala started Helios Innovation with an idea that seems obvious – use expert knowledge and AI models to validate healthtech and medtech products.

We’re going to talk about Jeff’s journey, the value they are creating, how they’re turning that into a business, and where they want to take customers by 2026.

We’re excited to be back for another episode of the Life Sciences Today Podcast by Healthcare IT Today. My guest today is David Lazerson, Co-Founder and CEO at Briya.

Briya started in 2020 with a bold idea — using cryptography and zero-knowledge proofs to make healthcare data shareable, secure, and compliant. Fast forward to today, they’ve just launched Briya AIRE, a clinical-grade AI research platform that promises to let researchers ask questions in plain English and get scientifically robust answers back — without writing code.

We’re going to talk about David’s journey, the value Briya is creating, how they’re turning that into a business, and where they want to take customers by 2026.

Check out the main topics of discussion for this episode of the Life Sciences Today podcast:

• What made you start with something as gnarly as zero-knowledge proofs for healthcare data?
• At what point did you realize infrastructure wasn’t enough, that people wanted insights, not just secure pipes?
• What customer conversations tipped you off that AI was the next layer?
• For a researcher using AIRE, what’s the moment when the lightbulb goes on?
• Which use case best shows the value — the one where you thought, ‘okay, this is working’?
• How quickly can a researcher go from a question in plain English to a publishable-level output?
• Validation is one thing — but startups live or die on turning that into repeatable business. What did you have to prove to your Series A investors to show Briya could cross that chasm?
• I know you probably can’t share exact revenue, but when investors leaned in, what was the strongest signal they saw that Briya wasn’t just another pilot project? Contracts signed, pipeline size, or something else?
• If we sit down again in 18 months, what would you want to point to as real traction?
• What’s the one thing you think customers will be most surprised that Briya can do for them by 2026?

Now, without further ado, we’re excited to share with you the next episode of the Life Sciences Today podcast.
