Abstract:
Engineering biologic drug candidates to optimize desirable properties or reduce unwanted characteristics often requires extensive experimentation. This presentation will highlight recent advances in computational structure-based methods rooted in physics and their role in expediting candidate optimization. It will address common challenges in antibody engineering, such as accurately predicting antibody-antigen binding affinities, enhancing structural stability, and identifying and mitigating developability risks. Additionally, the presentation will demonstrate how these workflows are integrated into a collaborative biologics discovery informatics platform. This platform combines experimental data with robust computational modeling, execution, delivery, and analysis capabilities, aiming to expedite and improve decision-making by centralizing all critical information.
On Monday, October 14th at Basel Marriott Hotel, Schrödinger is hosting an immersive workshop on the application of physics-based computational methods (BioLuminate, FEP+) and collaborative enterprise informatics (LiveDesign) towards designing better biologics, faster.
We welcome those who are new to computational tools or those who already have some experience and seek a more structured understanding, including of new and advanced methods. During the session, enjoy a networking lunch to connect with fellow attendees. If you’re interested in attending, please email marketing_europe@schrodinger.com.
