PopVax, in collaboration with Lagrange Point, is hosting an evening for people building deep tech in India, especially in robotics, machine learning, and biotech. Come meet the team over food and drinks, hear a short talk or two on what we’re building, and hang out with others building cool stuff from all over the country. PopVax (X/Twitter) is the Indian full-stack biotech developing novel vaccines and personalized cancer therapies using generative AI. To make it possible to create personalized medicines in weeks at population scale, we build: Generative models and pipelines to design the proteins, mRNA, and other types of molecules at the core of these medicines. A software platform and agents to plan, run, and analyze experiments, so our application of the scientific method becomes something we can version and improve. Robots and robotics foundation models to automate hands-on experimentation in our wet lab and manufacturing in our production facility, freeing our scientists to focus on doing new science. If you work on or aspire to work on any of these problems, or think you can contribute to the intricate operations that keep all of this running, you should definitely come by! Above all, we believe that India can and must advance the frontier of technology in the physical world, and that the dawn of generative AI gives us the opportunity to leapfrog legacy incumbents across the world, as Soham laid out in Overcoming India’s Technological Cowardice. If you believe that too, come and say hi!
