EDDC also has Asset Development Leaders (ADLs) to oversee the progress of projects entering preclinical to clinical development. ADLs use their extensive discovery and/or development experience to lead integrated project teams comprising Discovery Biology, Discovery Chemistry, Translational Sciences, Development, Project Management and Business Development colleagues.

ADLs plan ahead to prepare for regulatory submissions, as well as to ensure that the projects’ differentiation against the competition is well exemplified. They ensure that the team generates critical data packages within budgets and deadlines.
