Drug discovery from the age of information to the age of intelligence
20 March 2019 | By Jeff Martin (Head of Compound Management - Alkermes Inc.)
Data drives drug discovery, yet it continues to be among the biggest challenges faced by the industry.1 Experiments are often not repeatable and data interpretation is subject to the biases and limitations of human beings.
Cell line development – global market drivers, trends and its impact on improving biologics development from early phase to IND during the drug discovery process
19 March 2019 | By Aparajita Dubey - Associate Consultant at Prescient Healthcare Group
Cell line development is a major step for examining the efficiency of drug discovery, toxicity and in-vitro testing. It reduces time, effort and cost, which minimises the chance of research drugs failing at the clinical trial stage. This stage involves the production of recombinant proteins such as monoclonal antibodies, bi-specific…
