Computational Biology Market Seeking Excellent Growth | Chemical Computing Group Inc., Compugen Ltd. & Simulation Plus Inc

 

Computational bio-modeling uses computer-aided biological models to generalise methods and properly depict simulations in virtual space to review difficulties in biological models. Computational genetics is a branch of computational biology that studies genomic homology and internal biological systems through genome sequencing. One of the most notable examples is the Human Genome Project, which successfully sequenced the whole human genome. Computational biology is used in neurology to see and comprehend three-dimensional simulation models of the brain by mapping complicated interconnected pathways. The term "computational pharmacology" refers to the use of computer-assisted pharmacology.

In 2018, the global computational biology market was valued at USD 2.9 billion, with a CAGR of 21.5 percent predicted over the forecast year. Computational biology is an inter-disciplinary applied science that studies biological systems using mathematical, theoretical, and computer simulation models based on basic biology concepts. The rise in R&D for drug development, need for predictive models, use in population-based sequencing efforts like the human genome project, and government financing are all driving market expansion.

Growing drug discovery R&D, demand for predictive models, use in population-based sequencing efforts like the human genome project, and government financing are all driving the market forward. For example, in March 2019, Ambrx Inc., a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical firm specialising in protein treatments, struck a research and development agreement with BeiGene, Ltd., a commercial-stage pharmaceutical company specialising in immuno-oncology medication development. Ambrx has developed a unique Expanded Genetic Code platform that allows non-natural amino acids to be incorporated into protein sequences in E. coli and Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cells.

The German Translational Biodiversity Genomics Excellence Center was awarded a USD 20.0 million grant in January 2018 for high-quality sequencing of thousands of organisms over a seven-year period. Similarly, in October 2016, the National Human Genome Research Institute of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) awarded 23andMe USD 1.7 million for a one-year grant to develop sequencing panels for African American genomes. Furthermore, in 2016, the Canadian Ministry of Science announced a USD 4.0 million funding in 16 new computational biology initiatives.

The market is divided into three categories based on end use: commercial, academics, and industry. In 2018, commercial led the end-use market, owing to a growth in bioinformatics research, medication design, and personalised medicine utilisation. In August 2018, the European Union and India's Department of Biotechnology (DBT) announced a USD 17.2 million fund for research and development of next-generation influenza viruses to safeguard people around the world. These types of initiatives bring together commercial and government academia towards a common goal.

North America is likely to play an important role in the worldwide market. During the projected period, strong government financing for genetic-based studies, an increase in public-private partnerships, and industry-academic cooperation are expected to favour regional growth. e.

Chemical Computing Group Inc., Compugen Ltd., Simulation Plus Inc., Genedata AG, Certara, Insilico Biotechnology AG, Accelrys, Rhenovia Pharma SAS, Entelos, Nimbus Discovery LLC, and Rhenovia Pharma SAS are some of the leading companies. To expand their worldwide reach, most organisations focus on strategic alliances, agreements, and mergers and acquisitions. Certara, for example, bought BaseCase, a life sciences data visualisation business, in February 2018.
