Summary
In this joint webinar with Sanofi, we discuss an approach that combines mechanistic modeling with machine learning, to obtain deeper insights and guide therapeutic strategies, for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).
We begin our webinar with an introduction to QSP, followed by an overview of the virtual patient technology and its application in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Our speakers will share a case study to further elucidate applications. And finally, we will have an overall discussion of the impact this approach can have on drug development decision-making. At the end of the webinar, our expert speakers take questions from you.
Key Learning Objectives:
- Familiarize yourself with the current fast-changing landscape and trends in Quantitative Systems Pharmacology (QSP) and its applications in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)
- Get an overview of the virtual patient technology and applications, followed by a case study
- Learn about the impact of this approach on drug development decision-making
