The Impact of AI on Drug Discovery & Development
2:00PM Eastern
The worlds of healthcare and software are becoming increasingly interwoven as the computational power and sophisticated algorithms that have driven the success of many high-tech companies are integrated into the long, complex process of developing new treatments for human disease. But even as pharma companies and biotechs place big bets on artificial intelligence technologies for drug discovery and development, it’s unclear exactly how and when AI tools will advance beyond the narrow applications that have gained traction thus far---and whether they'll achieve the transformative effect some in the life sciences industry envision. Join Xconomy for a one-hour webinar featuring experts in life sciences and venture investing, who will help cut through the noise and explain the real opportunities and limitations of AI for biopharma businesses, highlight startups and large enterprises making progress, and unpack the key questions that will determine the impact and timeline of this emerging field.
