Clemens Meyer

Clemens Meyer is a Technical Director at Google DeepMind whose work on AlphaFold connected AI with protein structure prediction. He earned a master’s degree in sustainable development at HEC Paris in 2013. AlphaFold reached a median 92.4 GDT score at CASP14 in 2020, and he coauthored two 2021 reports on its method and proteome-scale predictions. He also coauthored Google’s Gemini report on multimodal models in 2023.
