Graph Data Zagreb 5 - Accelerating Drug Discovery With a Biomedical Knowledge Graph

Graph Data Zagreb is hosting its fifth meetup on July 6, 2022, featuring Michaël Ughetto, a graph data scientist from AstraZeneca, who will discuss the use of the Biological Insights Knowledge Graph (BIKG) in accelerating drug discovery. Ughetto will explain how AstraZeneca integrates data sources into BIKG and how this tool aids scientists in developing therapeutics. The event will take place at WESPA Spaces in Zagreb and offers an opportunity for networking over drinks and burgers, with nearly 200 graph and data enthusiasts expected to attend. Ughetto, who has a background in particle physics and machine learning, is focused on applying graph technologies to drug discovery challenges, and the meetup encourages participation from both existing and new members of the group, with additional engagement opportunities available on Discord.
