概述
This interactive, in-person, hands-on workshop trains attendees in using Certara IQ™, an AI-enabled QSP modeling platform that accelerates drug development. You will learn to build, optimize, and scale QSP models using AI-guided workflows, cloud-based simulations, and model libraries. Through the QSP case studies, you will see how Certara IQ streamlines systems pharmacology and supports confident decision-making across discovery to clinical stages.
Key takeaways
- Explore the latest QSP case studies and learn practical strategies to adopt QSP modeling in discovery and development projects for improved decision-making and accelerated innovation.
- Build and scale QSP models efficiently using AI-driven workflows, reusable model components, and cloud-based computing within Certara IQ.
- Optimize and validate models through automated parameter estimation, sensitivity analysis, and reproducibility tools to ensure regulatory readiness.
- Integrate QSP modeling software, Certara IQ, into cross-functional drug development workflows to enhance collaboration, data transparency, and translation from preclinical to clinical outcomes
