The Data Assets and Insights Solutions subfunction, DAIS, consists of a team of dedicated computer and data scientists which combine deep R&D process and domain expertise (biology, chemistry, pharmacy, etc) with advanced computational expertise (software engineering, natural language processing, scalable architectures, bio- & chem-informatics, data integration & visualization, etc). We integrate, enrich and harmonize large scientific datasets to build foundational data assets which are used by the R&D organization and our team to build insights solutions. They address key R&D challenges to improve speed, quality and probability of success of our R&D pipeline. Selected business critical tasks within R&D we are focusing on: - Target identification including holistic assessment - Disease understanding including precision medicine - Pipeline evaluation (therapeutic potential and risks) - Modality selection including identification of tool compounds - Identification of collaboration and in-licensing opportunities For more information contact: Wolfgang Thielemann.

Collaborations with external partners may lead to joint legal rights for compounds and data, which may restrict reusage in other projects. With the increasing number of collaborations at Bayer and with advancing time, memories of the project details fade, and reconstruction of the status will be nearly impossible. Therefore, we aim for a system to document the role of compounds, which will facilitate decisions on further usage in other collaborations. For more information contact: Miriam Wollenhaupt.

The Proprietary Information Management team, PIM, takes care of processes and systems related to either Compliance or Data Governance. Please talk to us if you need help with some cross-functional or collaboration-related topic or if you are interested to learn more about compound-related processes, compliance checks, lab notebook systems and similar things. For more information contact: Friederike Stoll.
