Everyone knows smooth collaboration can speed up successful drug discovery projects. But how can we collaborate easily in drug discovery teams, where many specialists must join forces to generate and analyse lots of different data, in complex multi-step processes?

Watch Tamsin Mansley, PhD (President, Optibrium Inc.) and Janice Darlington (Customer Engagement Scientist, Collaborative Drug Discovery) on this recorded webinar, as they discuss best practices and software to support collaboration. They cover:

  • Best practice for collaborative design: Key considerations for any leaders looking to support collaboration within their discovery teams.
  • Streamlining data: How researchers can organise and mine data in an efficient and collaborative way, using CDD Vault and StarDrop.
  • Idea tracking: How teams can create a central record of designs and decisions, assign responsibilities, and monitor projects within StarDrop, to accelerate discovery.
  • Collaborative design in action: A live demonstration of the integrated StarDrop, CDD Vault and new StarDrop Idea Tracker functionality.
  • Industry perspectives: How real biotechnology companies enable collaborative design in their discovery projects.
