Chief Science and Regulatory Officer

DIA, United States

This opening plenary explores how patient driven science, AI enabled discovery, and regulatory innovation can uncover “hidden cures” in the medicines and data we already have. Through a keynote from David Fajgenbaum and a panel on AI in biopharma, the session asks how we can find, trust, and deliver tomorrow’s cures from today’s science.

Learning Objective : Describe the latent potential of existing medicines and data, and how patient driven science can uncover new uses for known therapies; Explain how AI and advanced analytics can de risk drug discovery and trial design, surfacing overlooked opportunities and improving investment decisions; Identify system level levers: collaboration, regulation, and capital, that can help translate today’s science into tomorrow’s cures more quickly, safely, and equitably.
