Phenotypic screening identifies potential drug candidates based on their ability to modulate cells or organisms in a desired manner. However, phenotypic screening depends on models that can both induce pathological behavior and facilitate high throughput/high content screening. In this webinar from The Scientist, Molly Shoichet and Bridget Wagner will discuss strategies for creating such models and outline how they use them to identify agents to counter chronic diseases, such as cancer and diabetes.
Topics to be covered
- How 3D cell culture enables predictive drug screening
- Phenotypic screening for small molecule discovery in the beta cell
