Week 13 HW: AI, SynBio and Scaling Health Innovation

This week’s lecture was led by Dr.Renee Wegrzyn. She shed light on her time at ARPA-H, Transfyr.ai, her new biotechnology AI start-up, and the background work that goes into scientific breakthroughs and failures. It was very insightful; she drew parallels on how most innovations are adopted in other industries before scientists have the chance to use them.

TA Ice leads this week’s recitation, focused on Golden Gage Assembly. Additionally, TA Suvin took us through the requirements for final projects.

I also worked on my final project presentation.
