About this event

Translating your research into viable drug discovery projects through the Cyclica Academic Partnership Program (CAPP).

The Cyclica Academic Partnership Program (CAPP) connects academic labs and faculties with Cyclica’s AI-augmented drug discovery platform through in-kind use, while sharing both risks and benefits.

Together with academic partners, Cyclica unlocks the therapeutic potential of target discovery research to generate novel small molecule therapeutics for Oncology, CNS Disorders, and Inflammatory Diseases.

During this seminar Cyclica will present their external academic collaboration model and walk you through how they work side-by-side with innovators throughout their journey, providing a robust exchange of ideas and resources to support successful collaborations.

Participants will have the opportunity to ask questions and to respond to a call to meet with the Cyclica team 1:1 to discuss collaboration opportunities.
