San Francisco | Claude Conversation: How do Credentials Shift in Science?

A salon-style dinner discussion in San Francisco on how benchtop science is changing as robotics, machine learning, and computational pipelines move into labs. The conversation looks at the limits of traditional training such as the PhD as a credential, what a good human-AI loop looks like in the lab, and how the scientist's role evolves as experiments run more autonomously. Intros come from a Stanford Genetics PhD student, an automation scientist at a stealth startup, and a senior research scientist at WSU, with mingling before and after dinner. It is aimed at scientists, researchers, and technical builders using Claude Code for automation and computational work, and is free and open to everyone. Partners include Hanwha AI Center, Worldwide Studios, and BioKEA.
