Dr. Shachindra attended the Industry Day on Novel Alternative Models (NAMs) in Drug Discovery, organized by the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay (IIT Bombay) on June 12, 2026.
The event brought together researchers, industry leaders, innovators, and policymakers to discuss the growing role of New Approach Methodologies (NAMs) in drug discovery and development. Discussions focused on advanced in vitro systems, organ-on-chip technologies, 3D cell culture models, validation frameworks, regulatory considerations, and opportunities for industry-academia collaboration.
The programme also featured panel discussions, faculty presentations, networking sessions, and laboratory visits, providing participants with insights into emerging technologies that are shaping the future of more efficient, ethical, and human-relevant drug discovery.
The event served as a platform for exploring scientific, translational, and policy perspectives aimed at accelerating the adoption of innovative research methodologies within the life sciences ecosystem.
