Future Prospects of High-Content Imaging

Essential Insights for Drug Discovery Professionals

Our comprehensive market study provides an insightful overview of the High-Content Imaging (HCI) landscape, focusing on the current status and potential developments in early drug discovery. The survey was conducted from November to mid-December 2023 and targeted a global audience of healthcare researchers, biotech experts, large pharmaceutical companies, and academic institutions.

The goal was to gain a comprehensive view of HCI applications and advances in AI support related to HCI. The survey targeted experienced professionals and scientists in the field and gathered interesting information on current application practices, investment plans, and attitudes toward outsourcing.

In addition, the importance of HCI in achieving research goals was explored, and an overview of the integration and importance of HCI in early research projects was provided. The results will illuminate prevailing trends, highlight emerging challenges and growth opportunities, and provide insights to help organizations tailor and refine strategic approaches to deploying HCI in research environments.

With the information gained from the survey, industry professionals will be better equipped to make forward-looking, strategic decisions about meaningful HCI applications and deployments in order to derive maximum benefit from the innovative use of HCI in early drug discovery.
