About this Webinar
Drug R&D is an expensive and time-consuming process, and it has been estimated that only 10% of discovered compounds will successfully gain regulatory approval. Artificial intelligence (AI) is being increasingly used to quickly identify and validate drug targets, screen billions of potential molecules for hit generation and optimization, and predict patient response of treatment. This can significantly reduce the time and cost to get a drug to market. This webinar will provide an overview of the use AI in drug discovery, including key trends, leading players, deals, survey data, case studies, and more.
The webinar will last approximately 60 minutes.
