This month, we’re starting a new webinar mini-series. Over the next 5 months, we have 4 expert speakers lined up for live talks on a variety of bioinformatics-related topics. Our first event is Wednesday, October 22nd, and guest speaker Dr. Nick Wisniewski will deliver a talk on AI-First Drug Discovery Pipelines. Nick was a guest on episode 57 of this podcast in January.

Find out more about this month’s talk, and the other 3 events, on our LinkedIn (https://linkedin.com/company/the-bioinformatics-cro) or at https://bioinformaticscro.com/webinar.
