Merck - Drug Interaction Prediction
Open for Registration
  • Lecture time: Friday: 09:30:00 - 10:20:00 ET
  • Lab time: Monday: 09:30:00 - 11:20:00 ET
  • Domain: Pharmaceutical
  • Keywords: Database, data mining, NLP
  • Tools: Graph Neural Network, Python, Pytorch
  • Citizenship: Open to all students
Summary

Drug-drug interactions (DDIs) occur when the effect of one drug is altered by another drug. It is important to predict DDIs to avoid adverse drug reactions and improve patient safety. This proposal is to improve DDI prediction through database construction and model development.

  • Lecture time: Tuesday: 15:30:00 - 16:20:00 ET
  • Lab time: Thursday: 15:30:00 - 17:20:00 ET
  • Domain: Pharmaceutical
  • Keywords: Assay Optimization, Chromatography, NLP
  • Tools: AWS, Confluence, JIRA, Python
  • Citizenship: Open to all students
Summary

Students will develop an NLP model to extract chromatographic data from published literature. These findings would be stored in a searchable database. Gives Merck scientists a database for chromatographic conditions which can be used for method development.

Merck - NLP on Protein Sequences
Open for Registration
  • Lecture time: Tuesday: 15:30:00 - 16:20:00 ET
