NGI and NBIS webinar on de novo sequencing and analysis
Welcome to a webinar on de novo sequencing and analysis, a service that the National Genomics Infrastructure (NGI) and National Bioinformatics Infrastructure Sweden (NBIS) offers to its users. De novo, which translates to “starting from the beginning”, refers to the process of sequencing a novel genome from an organism where no previous reference sequence is available. The de novo analysis strategy is divided into separate stages, starting with (i) sequencing, (ii) assembly, and finally (iii) […]
Role of physiologically-based pharmacokinetics in regulatory submissions
AbstractPhysiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) is an approach that help predict the absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion (ADME) properties of candidate drugs in animal/human and evaluate the effects of intrinsic (e.g. organ dysfunction, age, genetics) and extrinsic (e.g. diet, smoking habit, drug-drug interactions) factors, alone or in combinations, on drug exposure, during drug discovery and development […]
