The Role of Cross-Institutional and Interdisciplinary Collaboration in Defining and Executing a Quantitative Systems Pharmacology Strategy
摘要
The application of quantitative systems pharmacology (QSP) has enabled substantial progress and impact in many areas of therapeutic discovery and development. This new technology is increasingly accepted by industry, academia, and solution providers, and is enjoying greater interest from regulators. In this chapter, we summarize key aspects regarding how effective collaboration among institutions and disciplines can support the growth of QSP and expand its application domain. We exemplify these considerations through a selection of successful cross-institutional or cross-functional collaborations, which resulted in reuse, repurposing, or extension of QSP modeling results or infrastructure, with important and novel results.
