Biosimilars and Pharma Innovations

Bio and Chemoinformatics

Bioinformatics plays key role in experimental molecular biology as image and signal processing allow extraction of useful results from large amounts of raw data. In the field of genetics and genomics, it aids in sequencing and annotating genomes and their observed mutations, in the text mining of biological literature and the development of biological and gene ontologies to organize and query biological data, in the analysis of gene and protein expression and regulation.

The Pharmaceutical industry's long successful strategy of placing big bets on a few molecules, promoting them heavily and turning them into blockbusters worked well for many years, but its R&D productivity has now plummeted and the environment’s changing. Regulators are becoming more cautious about approving truly innovative medicines.
