Episode 7 | Winning with Phlo: How AI Tools Empower Biotech Builders
In this episode of Proof of DeSci, we sit down with Caroline and Eshwar, winners of the Phlo Hackathon, to talk about their project Pearlfect Millet, a synthetic biology idea aiming to optimize millet for better taste and resilience. We dive into their scientific backgrounds, what drew them into DeSci, and how they leveraged Phlo’s research agents to go from idea to execution in just a few days.
They share their experience using Phlo for literature review, business strategy, and validating core assumptions. We also explore how new tools like Phlo can reduce friction for early-stage biotech innovation and what kind of support next-gen researchers are looking for.
If you’re into DeSci, AI for science, or early-stage biotech, you don’t want to miss this one.
