Greater Noida, 24th September 2026: Accurate College of Pharmacy, Greater Noida, organised a one-day international hybrid conference on “Generative AI and Computational Innovations in Next-Generation Pharmaceutical Sciences, Drug Discovery and Healthcare”. The conference brought together distinguished experts, academicians and researchers from India and abroad, along with 100 students, for discussions on the growing use of Artificial Intelligence and computational technologies in pharmaceutical sciences, drug discovery and healthcare.
The conference featured 170 research papers covering various aspects of Generative AI, computational technologies, pharmaceutical research and healthcare. Participants presented their work on the use of AI in drug discovery and also explored how emerging technologies can contribute to more personalised and accessible healthcare. The students also presented their ideas on the use of AI for making healthcare services more accessible through poster presentations.
The programme commenced with Saraswati Vandana and the ceremonial lighting of the lamp. The occasion was graced by Ms. Poonam Sharma, Chairperson, Accurate Group of Institutions, along with Director, Dr. A. K. Rai and other distinguished guests.
Speaking on the occasion, Ms. Poonam Sharma, Chairperson, Accurate Group of Institutions said, “Academic platforms such as this conference give students and researchers an opportunity to interact with experts, exchange ideas and understand the developments taking place in their respective fields. With Artificial Intelligence and other emerging technologies bringing changes to pharmaceutical sciences and healthcare, it is important for students to remain aware of these developments and understand their applications. We will continue to provide such opportunities through academic conferences, research activities and expert interactions so that our students and researchers can learn, explore and develop greater interest in innovation.”
Dr. A. K. Rai highlighted the technological changes taking place in the healthcare and pharmaceutical sectors. “Artificial Intelligence and computational technologies have opened new avenues in drug discovery, pharmaceutical research and healthcare services,” said Dr. Rai. He added that students and researchers need to understand these technologies and learn how to use them effectively and responsibly.
He further stated that academic conferences of this nature provide students with an opportunity to connect traditional pharmaceutical knowledge with modern technology, understand emerging developments and develop greater interest in research and innovation.
During the conference, experts shared their views and experiences on contemporary topics related to pharmaceutical sciences and Artificial Intelligence.
Dr. Shah Alam Khan (Oman) highlighted the role of Generative AI in drug discovery and explained how the technology could open up new possibilities in the development of next-generation medicines and pharmaceutical research.
