Synthetic biology processes can be useful to therapeutic development, diagnostics and vaccine advancement. Drug Target Review’s Victoria Rees spoke with Dr Jim Collins, Termeer Professor of Medical Engineering & Science at MIT and Founding Core Faculty & Lead, Living Cellular Devices at the Wyss Institute at Harvard University, to explore…
Despite the rapid deployment of vaccines among global populations, therapeutics such as antibodies are still required. Here, Dr Steve Carroll, Vice President of Pre-clinical Sciences at IGM Biosciences, explains how a potential Immunoglobulin M (IgM) antibody treatment has been developed that shows promise for combatting SARS-CoV-2 and variants of concern in pre‑clinical…
In this article, Dr Jens Bjørheim, Chief Medical Officer of Ultimovacs, explains why vaccination has proved the best strategy to target human telomerase and why this complex may be an effective approach to combat cancer.
Guided by precise biomarker tests, therapeutic vaccines targeting the pathology of neurodegenerative disease could provide solutions to the impending global crisis in dementia. As Dr Andrea Pfeifer, Co-Founder, Chief Executive Officer and Director of AC Immune, describes here, current work is both establishing the targets that those vaccines must address…
In a new study, researchers at Brigham and Women’s Hospital, US, successfully developed stem cell-derived neuronal profiles from individual patients. Here, Drug Target Review’s Victoria Rees explores the findings and how these new models can help to advance precision and personalised medicine.
Sheraz Gul explores how machine learning and artificial intelligence represent an exciting opportunity for the drug discovery industry, with the potential to develop highly optimised small molecules.
