Antibodies are a type of protein molecule produced by the immune system. They recognize and attach to other molecules with remarkable precision. Typically antibodies target foreign objects, like viruses, to mark them for destruction. However, they can also be engineered to treat diseases like cancer, and they are one of the fastest growing classes of drugs.

Recently, AI-driven antibody engineering has taken off, and BigHat Bio is one of the leaders of this revolution.

Eddie Abrams is the Chief Information Officer at BigHat. He joins the show to talk about protein engineering, what’s different about software development in biotech, how the engineering team is organized at BigHat, and more.
