Thank you!
Thank you to everyone who attended the Discngine Meetup this year!
Peptide Discovery: Pushing boundaries with innovative science and technology
About the event
Discngine Meetup is an annual online gathering that brings together the Discngine network of early drug discovery scientists and IT experts to showcase and discuss recent advancements in the field.
This year, the event theme, "Peptide Discovery: Pushing boundaries with innovative science and technology," covered exciting use cases, best practices, and unmet needs in peptide design, modeling, data management, research tools and technologies, and more.
In this two-hour virtual event, speakers shared their accomplishments and effective approaches for peptide design and discovery, as well as IT solutions that address the ongoing challenges in this progressing field.
After event networking with the audience was a great opportunity to expand the knowledge sharing and openly exchange.
The Q&A session is reserved for live attendees.
