Host: BAGIM & Computational Medicinal Chemistry School Organizing Committee

You can find out more about this event here - Computational Medicinal Chemistry School (compmedchem.org)

What:

This 3-day school is intended to narrow the gap between the methods development focused training in academia and the skillset required to be a full participant in drug discovery projects. To accomplish this, we have gathered seasoned computational drug hunters to explain not only the biology or chemistry that underlies a fundamental process/hurdle in pre-clinical drug discovery, but also how to think about addressing it from a computational perspective.

Who:

1. Undergraduates, graduates students or postdocs with experience in computational chemistry,computational biophysics, cheminformatics or machine learning for chemistry.
2. Early career computational chemists/biophysicists or machine learning scientists in industry with backgrounds in methods development looking for a formal introduction to computational drug discovery
3. Computationally-savvy medicinal chemists looking to broaden their exposure to computational methods through case studies

Title: Digital Transformation and FAIR in CMC: Addressing Data Silos in Chemistry, Manufacturing, and Control
Abstract:

Digital transformation plays a crucial role in optimizing Chemistry, Manufacturing, and Control (CMC) processes in the pharmaceutical and biotech industry. The use of a FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable) data standards approach is instrumental in this transformation. It is vital to have a deep scientific and strategic understanding of pharmaceutical and biotech development to enable effective digital transformation, solve the data silo issues and avoid the creation of so-called digital-induced silos. Our discussion will focus on how the integration of scientific knowledge and digital principles can enhance data governance and analytics within CMC-specific environments. Our approach involves evaluating data not solely as isolated units, but also in the context of the type of development and the associated unit operations, as well as the settings in which studies are conducted – be it internally or at CROs and CDMOs. This comprehensive perspective leads to a new FAIR vision, encompassing data-specific and CMC-specific scientific nuances in data.

At Zifo, our approach to digital transformation involves adopting this holistic, multilayered view. Real-world examples will illustrate how digital tools and FAIR data frameworks can streamline data integration and enhance decision-making. Witness how these innovations drive compliance, efficiency, and agility, thereby paving the way for a more responsive and competitive pharmaceutical industry.
