Now, I don’t do any PK/PD modeling (hence the “strange land”) but was invited to talk about our high throughput screening platform for drug combinations. I also hoped to learn a little more about this field as well as […]

As I was there for a relatively short period, I bounced around most sessions. MEDI and COMP had a joint session on desktop modeling and its utility in medicinal chemistry. […]
