3D Biology: The paradigm shift in next-gen drug discovery
In the midst of an evolving drug discovery paradigm, researchers worldwide are transitioning their compound screens away from 2D cell cultures and animal models to more complex, human-relevant 3D systems like organoids. Experience our interactive infographic as it takes you deeper into why the industry is embracing this next generation of drug discovery and the innovations supporting scientists in their 3D biology journey.
Drug Discovery & Development
The drug discovery landscape is shifting, with more scientists centering cell line development, disease models, and high-throughput screening methods around physiologically-relevant 3D cell models.
The reason for this is clear: Using cellular model systems in research that closely mimic patient disease states or human organs can bring life-saving therapeutics to market – faster.
3D Cell Models
With our automated 3D cell culture and bioimaging screening solutions, we are helping reshape the future of drug discovery. Supported by our technology and organoid development protocols, researchers can now advance and scale screening methods for physiologically-relevant 3D models that more closely mimic patient disease states and human organs, leading to faster drug development and approval.
Cell Line Development
Our cell line development customers accelerate time to market for life saving monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) and genomic medicine, as well as perform groundbreaking research in cell and gene therapies, genetic engineering, personalized and precision medicine, synthetic biology, RNA and DNA-based vaccines, and so much more – made possible by our innovative technology and rich expertise.
Drug Screening
For every drug that makes it to the finish line, another nine don’t succeed. This alarming failure rate can be traced to reliance on 2D cell cultures that don’t closely mimic complex human biology, often leading to inaccurate predictions of a drug’s potential and extended drug development timelines.
A critical step in the drug discovery process, drug screening and toxicity assessment uncover the effects of potentially life-saving compounds. Shifting to cell-based testing allows multiple chemicals to be tested rapidly and better represents human biology.
