I speak in English and Spanish, to audiences ranging from clinicians and policy people to software developers and computational genomicists. The topics I am most often asked about: agentic genomics and what it takes to trust an AI agent with a genome; benchmarking and validation for clinical-grade interpretation; genomic diversity and health equity; and personal genomics.

Events I organise

Congreso de Genómica, the Spanish Congress on Genomic Medicine. I convened the first edition in Madrid in May 2024, which drew 278 attendees from Latin America, the US, the UK, Germany and Spain, and whose proceedings were published in AIDS Reviews. It has run annually since. Programme | Registration

Past and upcoming editions include ClawBio Hackathon: Agentic Genomics at King’s College London, AI Agents for Health, ClawBio × Genomic Intelligence, ClawBio @ Kendall in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and the ClawBio and Nebius hackathon in Berlin. Follow the calendar to get new events as they are announced.
