Phenotypic Drug Discovery

Conference - Cambridge, MA, United States

Phenotypic screening (aka classical Drug Discovery) has been historically used in drug discovery. While technological developments have made the prevalence of target-based screening more popular, statistical analysis shows that a disproportionate number of first-in-class drugs with novel mechanisms of action come from phenotypic screening. Cambridge Healthtech Institute’s Inaugural Phenotypic Drug Discovery meeting will address the advantages of phenotypic screening vs. target-based screening, and focus on assay development, selection of physiologically-relevant models and subsequent target identification
