Company Makes Play for Life Sciences Sector
With this latest move, Anthropic is one step closer to realizing its long-held ambition to become the de facto AI model in the voyage of scientific discovery. A few months ago, it appointed Kauderer-Abrams, a renowned specialist in the life sciences tech space, to the role of Head of Biology and Life Sciences.
It also recently unveiled its latest AI model, Claude Sonnet 4.5, a month ago. The model is better at coding, using computers, and meeting business needs. Upon its release, it was declared to be “significantly better” at undertaking life sciences tasks, such as understanding lab protocols.
In order to bring Claude for Life Sciences closer to fruition, Anthropic had to establish partnerships with several leading players in the life sciences space, including Benchling, PubMed, 10x Genomics, Synapse.org, and more.
