Synopsis
Uncover the story behind four technological advancements from target discovery to phase II clinical trials in one quick-fire session. Each table will be hosted by leading specialist who will share the secrets of their most high-impact strategy; you then get the opportunity to question the host before moving on to your next table.
12:30 pm Lunch Networking Break
Augmentation of Early Stage R&D for Increased Efficiency and Accuracy
1:30 pm Are we there yet? The Use of AI in Target and Drug Discovery
Synopsis
• Addressing the hype cycle, and current expectations related to deployment of AI/ ML in early drug discovery
• How knowledge-based classification of proteins, combined with exhaustive annotations of drug-target-disease associations can inform and contextualize the decision-making process with respect to target selection
• The importance of in-depth domain expertise with respect to the development, interpretation and deployment of AI/ML models (XGBoost, MetaPath and 17 different types of “big” data) in target discovery for Type 2 Diabetes, Alzheimer’s disease and Autophagy
2:00 pm Discovery Without Data: Novel Target Selection
Synopsis
• Deep learning in pharmacogenomics for novel drug discovery and patient stratification
• How to overcome the data gap and provide the ML programming with the knowledge necessary to make new discoveries
2:30 pm Themed Networking Afternoon Break
Synopsis
Finding the right solution for your specific challenge can be like finding a needle in a haystack – especially when there are a wealth of options available. AI-ML 2020 is the forum to facilitate these conversations and marry problems with solutions. Our themed networking meetings will allow industry and solution providers to find
matches made in heaven.
2:30 pm Poster Session
Synopsis
Join us in the exhibition hall for a browse of our poster submissions – ranging from early stage target discovery to clinical trial design. Don’t forget to grab a coffee and discuss with your colleagues!
3:30 pm Case Study: Cell Line Development and Bioreactor Prediction
Synopsis
• Establish which vectors impact anti-bodies and predict how they will affect the final product
• Generate the right biologics at an early stage to scale up to the right protein or antibody for specific patients
4:00 pm Protein Prediction for Small Molecules and Assays
Synopsis
• Identify the right medication from and the reasons why that medication is the ideal candidate based on genome and pathway analysis
• How to teach your program so the machine can find possible connections with your knowledge as a foundation
