2014 – Destination Digital X

9. Xyna Konferenz
19.11.2014 at the Kurhaus, Wiesbaden

The term "digital transformation" describes the fundamental economic and social change brought about by technological innovations based on the Internet.

Digital transformation and the interconnection of the world

Information can be captured, stored and utilized more easily. With the Internet of Things, big data, mobility, social media and cloud computing, digital technologies are permeating all areas of business and life. Our society is facing fundamental change.

Communications networks and technologies must adapt to these new requirements - short innovation cycles and flexible value chains are also needed by service providers to meet future customer demands.

This year's 9th Xyna Conference of the GIP Research Institute discussed how digitization will change the way people work together, across company boundaries (Digital Company), in the city of tomorrow (Digital City) and in the energy networks of the future (Digital Grid). For successful digitization, we need systems and platforms to manage information flows.

The 9th Xyna Conference of the GIP Research Institute continued the successful conference series. More than 150 guests from IT, telecommunications, the energy sector, industry, research and development spent a day addressing questions about digital transformation - the fundamental economic and social change brought about by technological innovations based on the Internet.

Exciting presentations by Dr. Bernd Reifenhäuser, Yvonne Hofstetter, Randolf Stich, Axel Föry, Martin Jeske and Dr. Alexander Ebbes were able to inspire the expert audience.

First xyna.bio Hackathon

Last Friday, xyna.bio hosted a highly successful hackathon, bringing together motivated students and industry experts to work on cutting-edge biotech solutions using our first beta version. We are thrilled to share the highlights and achievements from this inspiring event. Participants tackled ambitious projects, including optimizing a protein involved in plastic degradation and designing a synthetic serotonin-like molecule for Alzheimer's disease treatment. With our initial pipeline, teams were able to design workflows from scratch and present initial results within just a few hours, showcasing the powerful capabilities of xyna.bio. One of the standout achievements was the integration of a ChatGPT node by the students, demonstrating the innovative potential of combining AI with biotech. We are excited to announce that we will be pursuing the addition of this ChatGPT node into the first official version of xyna.bio, set to launch later this year. Stay tuned for more updates on this exciting development!

xyna.bio @BFH iGEM Meetup Bielefeld

We had the incredible opportunity to participate in the BFH European iGEM Meetup and lead a workshop on leveraging AI in bioscientific research, showcasing our solution xyna.bio. We were overrun by motivation and eagerness, with our workshop being among the most signed up for among the 150 participants! Our mission to empower bioscientists with xyna.bio struck a nerve with everyone around, showcasing the need for an innovative way to integrate wet and dry lab processes and automate complex bioinformatical analysis for the scientists that need it.

Great success on jumpstarting with the first Future on Site event – Next GenAI goes Bio!

Our new series Future on Site jumpstarted with an inspiring mixture of young scientists coming together to create future synthetic biology solutions. The eagerness to develop new algorithmic tools and solve modern problems of our local iGEM Teams is fascinating, gaining them each a XOLLX iGEM Grant prize to develop their projects. A highlight was the firsthand insight, invaluable for the development of our Saturn project derived xyna.bio. The idea of an AI-aided bioinformatical analysis hyperautomation platform was greeted by all with enthusiastic discussions and ideas. The shared vision among all at the Future on Site: Next GenAI goes Bio once again showed the great innovative potential that we are eager to harness in these interdisciplinary events. Thank you again to everyone from the iGEM Tübingen, iGEM Aachen, iGEM Frankfurt and CompuGene Student Lab for the amazing first Future On Site Event. We will persist in gathering innovative minds to further work on creating our future.
