Translational Research Office

Once we identify the promising candidate from discovery research, we move forward the project to conduct battery of IND-enabling studies that include pharmacology studies, ADME studies and GLP-compliant toxicology studies aiming to validate the project as clinical candidate. These IND-enabling studies need to be conducted conforming to regulatory guidelines which are diverse depending on variety of modalities (e.g., small molecules, biopharmaceuticals, gene therapy, regenerative cell medicines).
