Manage episode 455942789 series 3555369
In episode 23, Zoe and me discuss the current status and promises of drug design, a field where many things seem trivial but nothing is really simple. Zoe talks about the challenges that precision medicine is facing, and how it fits into the grand landscape of future therapies. We go through some success stories, and I ask Zoe how the recent additions to drug design workflows help them in everyday scientific practice, both in terms of physics-based and data-driven models. We then spend a moment talking about the opportunities and responsibilities of a journal editor, and what are the lessons Zoe learned from creating her startup.
