Ep. 251 - Eyes on the target: a Back to School Overview
In this year’s series of Back to School essays, BioCentury’s editors ask whether the era of human first, causal biology and personalized medicine can reshape drug discovery to solve the weakest link in biotech — translation to the clinic. On a special edition of the BioCentury This Week podcast, the three authors of BioCentury’s 32nd Back to School edition, Editor in Chief Simone Fishburn, Executive Editor Selina Koch, and Executive Director of Biopharma Intelligence Lauren Martz, discuss how industry can solve its biggest bottleneck.
The editors zero in on inflammation and immunology, specifically how immunoproteomics upstage genomics in I&I target discovery, and neurology, notably how neuroscience companies are reducing to practice the concept of human-first discovery. Finally, they discuss the thread that runs through it all — precision medicine — and how biomarkers can help validate targets while bringing precision medicine to I&I and neurology.
