8:15 am The Genomics/AI Revolution: A Fireside Chat with Kari Stefansson
Kari Stefansson, MD, PhD, CEO, deCODE genetics
Kevin Davies, PhD, Executive Editor, The CRISPR Journal; Author, Editing Humanity: The CRISPR Revolution and the New Era of Genome Editing
Almost 30 years ago, Kari Stefansson returned home to his native Iceland with a vision to unleash the untapped potential of a precious genomics resource: his fellow Icelanders. The founding CEO of deCODE Genetics built a groundbreaking organization that fueled major advances in uncovering the genomics basis of many rare and common genetic diseases and cancers. After weathering some turbulent financial storms, Stefansson secured deCODE’s acquisition by Amgen in 2010. For the past decade, deCODE has provided the genomics engine to spur Amgen’s drug development and clinical programs. In this fireside chat, Stefansson will share stories and insights about deCODE’s incredible journey, the future of genomic medicine and the myriad applications of AI in genomic and biopharma research.

8:45 am PANEL DISCUSSION: AI and Genomics Come Together
PANEL MODERATOR:
Kevin Davies, PhD, Executive Editor, The CRISPR Journal; Author, Editing Humanity: The CRISPR Revolution and the New Era of Genome Editing
Artificial intelligence (AI) promises to enable the analysis of trillions of genomic, molecular, clinical, and epidemiological data, offering unprecedented insights into health and disease, the development of drugs and diagnostics, and empowering precision medicine. Our distinguished panel will review the opportunities, challenges, and innovations in applying emerging AI tools to biological data, and their potential to revolutionize drug development, diagnostics, and precision medicine.
