The Center of Excellence in Sustainable Pharmaceutical Engineering & Manufacturing (CESPE) and Cognizant are once more collaborating to host a round table discussion on the disruptive role of generative AI in pharma manufacturing.

WHERE: The Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences at the University of Ghent
(Ottergemsesteenweg 460, 9000 Gent, Belgium)
WHEN: Wednesday, June 5th, 2024 from 14:00–17:30

At this event you will have the opportunity to sit at the same table as thought leaders in both academia and the life sciences industry.

Global Principal AI/ML Engineer at GSK, Dr. Matthieu Duvinage will kickstart the conversation by illustrating how the global vaccine manufacturer is leveraging gen AI to improve supply chains operations.


Our intention is to create a safe space where all participants will be able to share successes and best practices, but also doubts, insecurities and a healthy amount of critical thinking. 

AGENDA:

14:00: Welcome of participants by Cognizant and CESPE

14:15 – 14:35: Keynote speech from GSK on the role of GenAI in manufacturing/predictive maintenance

14:35 – 14:55: Academic support by CESPE speaker

15:00 – 16:00: Moderated round table discussion prompting questions such as:

  •  What other use cases in manufacturing already exist?
  • When to use gen AI over traditional AI, and vice versa?
  • Is there a role for gen AI in predictive maintenance?
  • Regulatory considerations for the use of gen AI in production.
  • Current limitations of gen AI in manufacturing practice.
  • Potential industry-academic collaboration topics to unleash the true potential of generative AI in manufacturing settings.

16:00 – 17:00: Informal networking chat over drinks and bites
