From YouTube to Drug Discovery: Our Journey on the "Business of Biotech" Podcast

In this episode, Bioptic CEO Andrey Doronichev shares how his team went from building consumer tech to tackling the hardest problems in biotech—using AI, ultra-fast virtual screening, and a software-first mindset.

I went on the Business of Biotech podcast to tell the story of Bioptic — how a bunch of software nerds ended up building a next-gen drug discovery company.

We talk about:

  • How we use generative AI and ultra-fast screening to find new drugs
  • The awkward marriage of tech and biotech (spoiler: it's not always smooth)
  • Why access to data is the real bottleneck
  • And what’s coming next as we go deeper into solving drug discovery’s hardest problems

It’s honest. It's practical. And if you’re working at the messy edge of science and software, I think you’ll relate.
