Another hype-cycle is born around generative AI and the ChatGPT models. The same truths apply, if not more so, rubbish in gives rubbish out. This is something that we cannot countenance in Medicine and Drug Development.
As we look at patient first approaches of developing medicines using AI and Data Driven techniques, it is in the areas of intersection between real-world data, pre-clinical and clinical data that challenges and opportunities arise and challenges are overcome.
Come and hear how the world’s best minds in data science, digital healthcare and precision drug development are thinking about these challenges and taking effective action.
ConTech Pharma 2023 will be a 1-day hybrid event, taking place both online and at the Sheraton Skyline Hotel, London Heathrow. It will showcase the very latest thinking and help organisations to understand how these changes will affect them.
ConTech Pharma 2023 is focused on three main themes:
-
A virtuous circle – from real world data – via pre-clinical data - to analytics – and back to treatments in the clinic (inc manufacturing)
-
Aligning the semantics across clinical and pre-clinical applications
-
IDMP – Standards – knowledge sharing ahead of standards coming in to operation
Participants include the pharma and digital healthcare content pioneers who are already seeing the benefits of using data science, the data science visionaries who are building new content tools and those who understand how to start applying data science to their work.
If you are a publisher, content strategist or curator, R & D scientist, pharma or digital healthcare professional and this resonates it’s time to get involved with this event, whether it’s as a speaker or delegate.
