Increasing efficiency of drug discovery is paramount and multiple approaches are supporting this objective. Better cellular model systems offer more relevant insight into the disease physiology while maintaining sufficient throughput to enable fast translation. Such models can also reveal early indicators of undesired effects and toxicity allowing leads to fail early and cheap. This talk will show how PerkinElmer technologies can help scientists to identify new compounds or toxic effects early in the drug discovery process by enabling work with complex cellular models such as primary human cells, iPS derived cells or 3D micro-tissues.
