Join us for a presentation by Andrea Browning, Senior Director at Schrödinger, titled “Accelerating drug formulation through molecular dynamics simulations and machine learning approaches.”
11:50 AM Accelerating drug formulation through molecular dynamics simulations and machine learning approaches
Speaker:
Andrea Browning, Senior Director, Schrödinger
Abstract:
Given the competitive market and inherent challenges in small molecule drug projects, selecting and combining the right ingredients, such as solvents, excipients, and polymers for drug formulation is a critical step. A smart, strategic drug formulation approach aided by a robust computational modeling platform can advance drug productization projects and inform downstream processes. Recent developments in molecular modeling techniques and machine learning methods not only enable the screening of large numbers of candidate materials in quick time, but also offer atomistic-level insights into formulation experiments and mitigate challenges in drug formulation. In this talk, I will present select examples where physics-based computational modeling tools and workflows are used to accelerate pharmaceutical formulation processes; including selection of excipients and dissolution of the final formulation product.
