Future-Proofing Pharma: Navigating Drug Development's Next Frontier
Deccan ChronicleInnovation today has taken centre stage in the dynamic environment of modern India, especially in fast-moving fields of medtech, assistive technology, and smart medicine. This sobering reality clearly emphasizes the urgency of the situation and calls for a quantum leap in technology deployed at every step in the drug discovery pipeline so that new drugs and vaccines can be developed to efficiently treat all known and unsolved ailments.This is where the holy trifecta of cutting-edge technologies such as quantum computing, analog systems, and artificial intelligence comes into play as the revolutionary leaders of change and transformation. Newer Horizons for Personalised Medicine Another key goal of drug discovery campaigns is faster and relevant computing to remove inefficiencies in the current pipeline.Consider a scenario where researchers, armed with accelerated biocomputing and sophisticated modeling technologies, can mimic and understand how our bodies work at a tiny, detailed level at an unprecedented speed. As we head into the new year, we will witness unprecedented efficiency in the drug discovery pipeline along with significant progress in mitigating novel drug side effects. While AI is not a standalone solution, its role as a catalyst, augmenting and supporting other technologies, is pivotal in transforming every facet of the drug discovery process.As breakthroughs continue to unfold, the onus is on our government and regulatory bodies to reassess their approaches toward clinical trials and medical research that bear fruitful outcomes.
