Webinar: Artificial Intelligence Drug Discovery - Where are we now?

Recorded live June 22, 2023

In the 1960s, pharmaceutical researchers started on a long journey to discover and develop new medicines using computers. These visionary scientists realized that humans assisted by computers could have a tremendous competitive advantage relative to traditional pencil and paper based approaches. Today, computational methods are now routinely used to extract value from the ever increasing volume and diversity of experimental data generated from highly interconnected multidisciplinary collaborators.

This webinar talks about the latest trends from drug discovery thought leaders in the industry using AI to model and predict medicinal and biological properties.
