We are delighted to be supporting Spanish Drug Discovery Network (SDDN) with this webinar.

How can we harness functional genomics at scale to accelerate the discovery of new therapeutic targets?
In this session, Leire Escudero-Ibarz, Associate Director at the Center for Genomics Research, AstraZeneca, will share insights into how functional genomics platforms are being deployed at scale to identify and validate novel therapeutic targets, and how to navigate the growing complexity of large datasets and advanced screening technologies.
Key discussion points include:
▪️ Scaling functional genomics for target discovery
▪️ Integrating human genetic evidence and multi-omics datasets for actionable insights
▪️ Overcoming technical and translational challenges
▪️ Enabling innovative therapeutic strategies
Sign up and join this free webinar exploring how cutting-edge genomics is transforming drug discovery, featuring the Spanish scientist Leire Escudero-Ibarz and her inspiring international career in the UK.
