Drug Discovery and Development

Biotech and pharmaceutical researchers engage MathWorks Consulting Services to create end-to-end workflows for drug discovery and development, from molecular simulation and protein structure to toxicity prediction through quantitative systems pharmacology and PK/PD modeling and simulation.

Solutions include dedicated radiology and pathology image labeling and analysis tools. Researchers work with MathWorks consultants to design, implement, and deploy projects on dose optimization, drug-drug interaction prediction, surrogate modeling, and sensitivity analysis while adhering to regulatory standards.


Regulatory Support

Biotech and pharmaceutical companies rely on MATLAB and Simulink products, which are compliant with regulations in North America, Europe, and Asia. These products support GMP, GLP, GLM, and FDA compliant studies with regulatory workflows and HIPAA compliant data management. The development of IEC 62304-compliant embedded software is supported for FDA/CE regulatory compliance. MathWorks Consulting Services develops and reviews analysis tools for 21 CFR Part 11 compliance and supported validation activities.
