Therapeutic breakthroughs can trace their genesis to drug discovery. This first stage focuses on understanding the processes associated with a disease and identifying a drug that either improves or maintains an individual’s health. Pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies must move from isolating disease targets to searching for one or more lead compounds to be tested and refined.  Eventually, promising leads undergo further testing to determine their safety and effectiveness.

In this on-demand webcast, University of Michigan Associate Professor of Medicinal Chemistry Amanda Garner, PhD, will delve into the science of drug discovery, highlighting common challenges and emerging trends.

Learning objectives:

• Understanding the role of discovery in pharmaceutical research and development
• Exploring the evolution of discovery from disease to lead compounds
• Addressing key considerations associated the discovery process
