From November 13-14, 2023, Model Medicines participated in the annual BARDA Industry Day conference convening government, academia, and industry to discuss the latest innovations in public health preparedness.

The event facilitated critical dialogue around developing flexible solutions to pressing health security threats. Sessions covered funding opportunities, strategic priorities, and technological capabilities needed to enhance response capacities.

A highlight was Model Medicines’ discussion with BARDA Director Dr. Gary Disbrow. We appreciated the chance to share our differentiated platform and pipeline. The conversation focused on potential partnership opportunities to apply Model's integrated AI approach toward BARDA's mission.

As pioneers in AI-driven drug discovery, we believe platforms like GALILEO will be crucial to rapidly advancing countermeasures. But technology alone is insufficient; true innovation requires collaboration across sectors and disciplines.

Events like BARDA Industry Day recognize this fact, fostering connections to collectively tackle complex challenges too great for any one organization. Model Medicines remains committed to working alongside stakeholders across industry and government to deliver breakthrough technologies for the public good.
