The Royal Institution | Ri on AI: Understanding AlphaFold – with Dame Janet Thornton @TheRoyalInstitution | Uploaded 9 months ago | Updated 10 hours ago
We’re exploring how AI is impacting different areas of scientific research, and in this episode we discuss AlphaFold, the machine learning programme from DeepMind that can determine a protein structure from its amino acids alone

Lisa Derry is joined by Dame Janet Thornton, an oracle of bioinformatics and former Director of the European Bioinformatics Institute, to discuss how AlphaFold has revolutionised its field, and what it could do in the future.

This is the full video version of our latest podcast episode - let us know what you think of the new video format!

Production: Lia Hale
