SMi is proud to invite you to its exclusive conference on Drug Discovery, taking place on the 27th & 28th March 2017 in London. The gap between a laboratory discovery and an approved drug on the market is a decade-long process of laboratory testing, evaluation in animal models and human clinical trials that can cost hundreds of millions. Against this backdrop Drug Discovery 2017 will provide a platform to bridge the gaps in approval for drug discovery and development by discussing the latest scientific breakthroughs, exploring novel technologies and approaches that can be used to overcome drug development challenges.
