Which Current Trends Are Having the Most Impact on the Drug Discovery Services Market?

Leading enterprises in the drug discovery services sector are embedding cutting-edge technologies like artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) to fortify the competency and precision of the pharmaceutical discovery process. Within the realm of computer science, AI and ML are interconnected domains. AI implies the creation of computer systems equipped to carry out tasks normally carried out by human intellect. Contrastingly, ML, an AI offshoot, prioritizes algorithms and statistical models’ deployment to instruct computers to learn, make forecasts, or decisions based on provided data. For instance, in February 2024, Eurofins Discovery, a French firm offering services to diverse industries including pharmaceuticals, launched a novel platform named DiscoveryAI SAFIRE (Suite of ADMET Predictions for In Silico Refinement and Evaluation). This progressive platform employs proprietary datasets, AI, and ML to upgrade the drug discovery process. SAFIRE is developed to accelerate the unearthing of novel pharmaceuticals by forecasting the ADMET (Absorption, Distribution, Metabolism, Excretion, and Toxicity) attributes of molecules. This platform harnesses data from the extensive BioPrint database of Eurofins Discovery, diligently amassed over numerous years of research.
