E178: Navigating Reliability in Modern Molecular Research with AI

Can AI truly revolutionize molecular biology if it’s built on unreliable data? In this game-changing episode, we speak with Dr. Jonathon O'Brien, founder and CEO of Golgi, about one of the most critical—and often overlooked—issues in biomedical AI: data reliability.With a background in biostatistics, proteomics, and machine learning, Dr. O’Brien shares how Golgi’s AI-powered computational platform is helping pharma and biotech giants like Johnson & Johnson tackle the reproducibility crisis in mass spectrometry-based proteomics. We explore how his patented platform predicts measurement variability using data features most researchers overlook—and how this unlocks faster, cheaper, and more reliable drug discovery.What You’ll Learn:Why AI models in biology often fail due to bad training dataHow Golgi predicts data reliability without replicatesWhy reproducibility and variance prediction are key to high-throughput drug screeningReal-world examples from pharma and stealth biotech clientsThe cultural and technical barriers to trustworthy AI in life sciencesLessons from AlphaFold and Basecamp Research on reliable ML data useBest practices for applying machine learning in molecular biologyHow human expertise is still vital in AI-driven biomedical innovationAbout the PodcastAI for Pharma Growth  is a podcast focused on exploring how artificial intelligence can revolutionise healthcare by addressing disparities and creating equitable systems.
