Abstract

Due to the increasing diversity of drug discovery modalities in recent years, there is an urgent need to adopt more advanced analytical and measuring technologies for pharmaceutical development. In addition to liquid chromatography and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry systems, Shimadzu Corporation offers data analysis software based on artificial intelligence (AI) and statistical analysis, which improves the reliability of characterization, quality assessment, and analytical method development. In the fields of cell therapy and regenerative medicine, Shimadzu offers multifacet-ed support through technologies such as culture optimization assistance and nucleic acid analysis. These efforts are   directed toward establishing a technological foundation that will drive innovation in future drug discovery processes.
