From studying DNA in the lab to working with patients in clinical trials, Amgen scientists are pioneering new approaches to understanding human biology and making innovative medicines to treat disease. Join leaders at Amgen and beyond for in-depth discussions of the latest science and discoveries in our podcasts developed in collaboration with The Scientist.
Out Now: The Generative Biology Revolution
Generative biology is a revolutionary approach to drug discovery and development that leverages AI and machine learning to design novel protein therapeutics. It holds the potential to enhance the speed and efficiency of drug discovery.
In this four-part series, Ray Deshaies, senior vice president of Global Research at Amgen, discusses how generative biology is transforming drug discovery to make it more predictable, shorten timelines, and increase success rates of bringing life-saving medicines to patients who need them most.
