How our R&D approach helps us get Ahead Together

quote

R&D approach

GSK India Research and Development

There's never been a time when science and technology have formed such a powerful union as they do now. We’re able to identify drug discovery targets using genomics and AI/ML in a way that is unprecedented. We’re also able to use more approaches than ever before to design new vaccines and medicines to address the root cause of disease."

Globally, we’re driven to positively impact the health of over 2.5 billion people in the next 10 years. To deliver on our purpose, we must continue to discover and develop world-leading vaccines and medicines that can treat and prevent disease at scale.

We’re combining the power of genetic and genomic insights into what causes disease, with the speed and scale of artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML) to make better predictions about who a treatment might work for, and why.

We believe this powerful combination of data and technology holds the key to fundamentally transforming medical discovery for the better, improving R&D success rates and shaping how even the most challenging diseases, like neurological conditions and cancer, can be both prevented and treated.
