Lundbeck and IBM collaborating on use of artificial intelligence for research purposes

The pharmaceutical company H. Lundbeck A/S has established a new and innovative collaboration with IBM on access to the IBM Watson super computer. Plesner advised Lundbeck on the agreement.

In the years to come, knowledge from Lundbeck's brain research is to be combined with IBM's cognitive Watson super computer. IBM Watson is to be used to strengthen Lundbeck's development of drugs for the treatment of schizophrenia, Parkinson's disease and other neurological disorders.
