Description

In the In Conversation With series, a part of the free DDW podcast, DDW speaks with members of the drug discovery industry about their work and how it helps turn science into business.   

In this episode, Megan Thomas is in conversation with Dr Friso Postma, Vice President of AI Drug Discovery at BioXcel Therapeutics.

Thanks to BioXcel's AI platform, the company was able to repurpose previous drugs to obtain FDA approval for its acute treatment for agitation associated with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, IGALMI, in April 2022, which was the first drug development success that involved the actual use of AI.
