Insilico Medicine develops software that leverages generative models, reinforcement learning (RL), and other modern machine learning techniques for the generation of new molecular structures with specific properties. Insilico Medicine also develops software for the generation of synthetic biological data, target identification, and the prediction of clinical trials outcomes. The company integrates two business models; providing AI-powered drug discovery services and software through its Pharma.AI platform (www.insilico.com/platform/) and developing its own pipeline of preclinical programs. The preclinical program is the result of pursuing novel drug targets and novel molecules discovered through its platforms. Since its inception in 2014, Insilico Medicine has raised over $52 million and received multiple industry awards. Insilico Medicine has also published over 100 peer-reviewed papers and has applied for over 25 patents. Website http://insilico.com/
PandaOmics is a web-based tool specifically designed to empower pharma drug and target discovery pipelines. PandaOmics combines omics, text and chemistry databases in a single solution available online at https://insilico.com/pandaomics
One of the core features of PandaOmics is a target ID tool. It utilizes the information relevant to a particular disease from multiple publicly available sources including omics-based network methods, 3D structure availability, information on the known inhibitors and drugs, clinical trials, grants, patents and scientific publications and outputs the ranked list of therapeutic target hypotheses along with the supporting evidence.
