AI Agents in Drug Discovery 2026
Please join TandemAI for: AI Agents in Drug Discovery-2026. Our forum will include senior pharma and biotech leaders who are working at the intersection of AI/ML, physics based computation and drug discovery. Through keynote presentations and panel discussions, the program will explore how agents are reshaping the path from target ID to therapeutic candidate. Attendees will hear perspectives from across modalities and across the discovery pipeline – from people who can really speak to what’s working with agentic workflows, what isn’t working, and where the field is headed.
