Show Notes
馃挰 Artificial intelligence and big data are flooding discovery pipelines with high-potential drug candidates, but this rapid innovation has triggered a crisis. Simply put, our capability to design miracle molecules is vastly outstripping our technology to mass-manufacture them safely for the global public. Moving drug making from the scale of lab flasks to commercial bioreactors introduces non-linear biological and engineering shifts that can undermine tasks like purification.
鈿n this 快猫短视频 CoLab podcast, experts from global life sciences leader Cytiva explain the hidden, high-stakes science of purification that is required to close the gap between drug discovery and the pharmacy shelf.
Our guests are:
Henrik Ihre, Distinguished Fellow, Cytiva
Paul Belcher, Business Leader, Cytiva
馃帶 Stay tuned to learn about:
鉃� The process of taking a drug from theoretical to the shop shelf
鉃� How the drug purification works
鉃� The human cost when purification goes wrong
鉃� The challenges of keeping pace as AI supercharges drug discovery
