About
Join WuXi Biology Early Discovery Platform's experts as they discuss the innovative and latest technology updates in small and new molecule drug discovery.

The realm of drug discovery is perpetually advancing, with early-stage research playing a crucial role in identifying and developing new therapeutic candidates. At the forefront of this innovation, WuXi Biology Early Discovery Platform continuously develops and refines innovative technologies to push the boundaries of small and new molecule drug discovery. This upcoming launch event will showcase our latest advancements and present updated products aimed at accelerating early-stage drug discovery, reinforcing our dedication to transforming pharmaceutical research.

Join us for an exclusive webinar where experts from WuXi Biology Early Discovery Platform, Dr. Wenji Su, Dr. Zhongyao Ma, and Dr. Andy Ng, will unveil the latest innovative technologies and products in small molecule and new molecule drug discovery. Attendees will gain insights into DELpro 2025, DELight Gen.5, DELvision, the Direct-to-Biology Platform, Peptide Drug Discovery, the Target Discovery and Validation Platform, and Oligonucleotide Drug Discovery, along with their potential impacts on the drug discovery process. Following the expert presentations, a live Q&A session will allow attendees to engage with the speakers, ask questions, and gain deeper insights into our technologies and their applications.

Key topics will include:

  • DNA-Encoded Library (DEL) Technology: Introduce the newly updated DELpro and DELight kits, as well as DELvision, an experimental database of protein-DEL interactions, and can also be used in target science to prioritize new drug targets..

  • Direct-to-Biology Platform: Learn about this cost-effective and time-saving approach that empowers TPD molecule discovery, small molecule and peptide optimization, and rapid SAR exploration.

  • Target Discovery and Validation Platform: Explore how this platform accelerates the identification and confirmation of biological targets that can be effectively modulated by therapeutic agents.

  • Integrated Peptide Drug Discovery Platform: Discover multiple approaches to find peptide hits, including DNA-Encoded Library (DEL) and display technologies.


Oligonucleotide Drug Discovery: Gain insights into an integrated biology platform designed to support the discovery of oligonucleotide drugs.
