Joining this consortium reinforces our commitment to innovation in drug discovery and an aim to address the unmet medical needs of patients.&nbsp;<br> <br> Participation in the consortium will help to enhance digital molecular design at ½ðºÌÓéÀÖ³Ç, using the power of deep learning, whilst contributing to the advancement of open-source research to the wider scientific community. Collaboration and partnerships are key to accelerate the impact of new technologies particularly in the rapidly evolving fields of artificial intelligence and computer-aided drug design (CADD).&nbsp;<br> <br> The application of digital design at the molecular level has already enabled the discovery of some of our biologics-based treatments at ½ðºÌÓéÀÖ³Ç. Joining the OpenFold consortium will help ½ðºÌÓéÀÖ³Ç to further contribute to the understanding of how and why molecules bind, in a collaborative, pre-competitive environment. The consortium will aid accurate state-of-the-art AI based structure prediction and assessment of interactions between protein:protein and protein:small molecules to deliver not only open science and innovation but also assist the design of novel treatments.</p> <article data-quickedit-entity-id="media/45201" class="align-center media media--type-image media--view-mode-default"> <div class="field field--name-image field--type-image field--label-hidden field__items"> <img loading="lazy" src="/sites/default/files/styles/ucb_header_image/public/2023-09/OpenFold.png.webp?itok=pK0Wu8gN" width="559" height="361" typeof="foaf:Image"> </div> </article> <p>You can read the press release <a href="https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20230912365077/en/OpenFold-AI-Research-Consortium-Welcomes-Three-New-Members-½ðºÌÓéÀÖ³Ç-NVIDIA-and-Valence-Labs">here</a>.<br> &nbsp;</p> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-newsroom-category field--type-entity-reference field--label-above field__items"> <a href="/taxonomy/term/1910" hreflang="en">innovation</a> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-newsroom-tags field--type-entity-reference field--label-above field__items"> <a href="/taxonomy/term/1279" hreflang="en">Innovation</a> <a href="/taxonomy/term/10426" hreflang="en">OpenFold</a> <a href="/taxonomy/term/1738" hreflang="en"> Artificial Intelligence</a> <a href="/taxonomy/term/1740" hreflang="en"> Drug discovery</a> <a href="/taxonomy/term/10427" hreflang="en">CADD</a> <a href="/taxonomy/term/10428" hreflang="en">Computer-aided drug design</a> </div> <div> <div class="comments-wrapper"> <div class="comment-area"> <h2 class="red">Leave a Comment</h2> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderForm" arguments="0=node&amp;1=14870&amp;2=field_newsroom_askexpert&amp;3=ask_expert" token="lt3TZ6sOb-P2z211D8UPAlCbBwniUDsA_5BCIUOkdbQ"></drupal-render-placeholder> <span class="toggle-form js-toggle-form"></span> </div> <div class="comment-wrap" data-comment-user-id="0" id="comment-43395"> <span class="block">Comment:</span> <div id="comment-43395" class="comment"> <span class="name-date"> Posted by <strong><span lang typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype content="hubertj08327378823951">hubertj0832737…</span></strong>, 19 September 2023 </span> <div class="comment--body"> <div class="field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__items"> <p>Hi there to all, the contents existing at this website are in fact remarkable for people knowledge, well, keep up the good work fellows.</p> </div> </div> </div> <drupal-render-placeholder callback="comment.lazy_builders:renderLinks" arguments="0=43395&amp;1=default&amp;2=en&amp;3=" token="U72QnR0a1f6vqRvMwRS2rAEIDqeoTezyaxPg-_3RKb0"></drupal-render-placeholder> </div> </div> </div> <span class="a2a_kit a2a_kit_size_16 addtoany_list" data-a2a-url="/innovation/magazine/detail/article/committed-to-drug-discovery-innovation" data-a2a-title="Committed to drug discovery innovation"><a class="a2a_dd addtoany_share" href="https://www.addtoany.com/share#url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ucb.com%2Finnovation%2Fmagazine%2Fdetail%2Farticle%2Fcommitted-to-drug-discovery-innovation&amp;title=Committed%20to%20drug%20discovery%20innovation"></a><a class="a2a_button a2a_button_facebook"><img src="/themes/custom/ucb_premier/images/a2a/facebook-icon.svg" width="16" height="16" border="0" alt="linkedin"></a><a class="a2a_button a2a_button_linkedin"><img src="/themes/custom/ucb_premier/images/a2a/linkedin-icon.svg" width="16" height="16" border="0" alt="linkedin"></a><a class="a2a_button a2a_button_twitter"><img src="/themes/custom/ucb_premier/images/a2a/twitter-icon.svg" width="16" height="16" border="0" alt="twitter"></a></span> <div class="field field--name-field-like field--type-likes-dislikes field--label-above field__items"> <div class="like_dislike"> <div class="like"> <a rel="nofollow" class="use-ajax" href="/like-dislike/like/eyJlbnRpdHlfdHlwZSI6Im5vZGUiLCJlbnRpdHlfaWQiOiIxNDg3MCIsImZpZWxkX25hbWUiOiJmaWVsZF9saWtlIiwibGlrZXMiOiI1NDEiLCJkaXNsaWtlcyI6Ii04OSJ9"></a> <span class="like-14870"> 541 Likes </span> </div> </div> <div id="like_dislike_status"></div> </div> Tue, 19 Sep 2023 08:45:55 +0000 Vanco Vlastimil (½ðºÌÓéÀÖ³Ç S.A.) 14870 at
