Delivering medicines for a global population: Front Row lecture with Arnab Chatterjee, PhD


Infectious diseases like tuberculosis and malaria pose an ever-increasing risk to communities around the world. Meanwhile, a lack of investment, long treatment protocols and drug resistance have stymied innovation in this area. In this free Front Row lecture, vice president of medicinal chemistry Arnab Chatterjee will discuss how Calibr—the drug discovery and development arm of Scripps Research—is using innovative new approaches and technologies to overcome these historic barriers. His work at Calibr is helping accelerate the delivery of safe, effective and accessible medicines to countries spanning the globe.
