As modeling projects grow, so grow the costs of debugging, scaling, and modifying the model pipeline. One method to minimize the costs of model maintenance is to train models in reproducible iterations. In the context of machine learning, we define a reproducible model iteration as the output of an executable script that is a pure function of three variables: code, environment, and data. Reproducible models are not an end, but a means to faster, more correct iterations. A reproducible model history implies that developers can confidently reconstruct any past model iteration. As a result, reproducibility makes it easier for developers to experiment with modifications, isolate bugs, and revert to known good iterations when problems arise.

Scaling clinico-genomic data integration: Large pharmaceutical organizations working with external data providers used Polly to build interoperable clinico-genomic data products 6x faster.
Although purchased datasets are often labeled as "clean," they still lack interoperability—Polly's pipelines bridge this gap with robust integration and harmonization.
Information Retrieval: Drug safety monitoring teams used Polly's Knowledge Graph powered co-scientist to conversationally retrieve the right cohorts & assess drug response—cutting discovery time by 70%.
If you’re working with complex biological data, you may be asking:
Can generative AI truly assist in scientific reasoning, not just data analysis?
What does it mean for hypothesis generation, literature review, or even designing experiments?
Could this accelerate—not replace—my discovery pipeline?
Whether you're skeptical, curious, or already experimenting with AI in your lab—this is a session designed to ground your understanding in evidence, not speculation.
