https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6GiQeKkXVsITechnology and biology are becoming cheaper and increasingly precise. In spite of this, many pharmaceutical products are taking longer and more investment to reach the market than ever before. Moreover, recent global events have challenged our ability to perform scientific pursuits in the same old ways—the need for transformation in how we work is more clear than ever. SynBioBeta brings together leaders in the field of synthetic biology to discuss how we can re-imagine R+D, digitalization, and biomanufacturing to address urgent consumer and industrial needs in an ever-changing and accelerating world. Themes:
- Making data matter more: How to get more discoveries with less effort
- The factory lab: How principles of manufacturing, quality and data analytics assist R&D effectiveness without inhibiting innovation
- Distributed research: How contract research and digital collaboration technologies are changing the way we do science
- Reduction to practice: Case studies in successful digitalization
