Panel Discussion: Designing the Ideal Early Discovery Biophysics Workflow from Throughput to Relevance to Confidence

Discussion Points Include:

  • Explore strategies for prioritizing which biophysical assays to deploy first across diverse target classes
  • Discuss how to balance high-throughput screens with deeper mechanistic assays to build confidence in early hits
  • Examine how to define “confidence” in binding and progression decisions for challenging modalities, including fragments, PROTACs, intrinsically disordered proteins, and RNA-binding targets
  • Share insights into managing conflicting or ambiguous data and deciding which hits to advance
