- Computers are protected to prevent unauthorized access
Intonation Science

Intonation Science
With a team of over 175+ scientists that have published 280 papers and patents, delivered 16 INDs and 6 marketed drugs we know what it takes to be successful in drug discovery.
We are small enough to be flexible and nimble ensuring quick decision making and large enough to ensure we have the resources to deliver on the most challenging projects.
We have a highly talented scientific team with an average of more than 6 years of industrial experience and a ratio of Ph.D:M.Sc = 1:4

Our Infrastructure
We operate a 130,000 sq.ft state of the art chemistry and bioscience facility in Hyderabad India. The laboratory complex with 60 fume hoods, cell culture,
screening and radioisotope laboratories are designed to facilitate effective communication and workflow between scientists.

Bioscience Facilities

Bioscience Facilities
Our bioscience team’s principal role is to support our integrated discovery programs. Our bioscience knowledge of target biology, therapeutic area specialization, and ability to work collaboratively at each stage of the drug discovery process allows the efficient design or transfer and validation of high-quality single assays or cascades to accelerate your hit finding, hit-to-lead and lead optimization programs. We have the expertise and infrastructure to support biochemical, cell-based and radio-ligand binding assays.
IBSC (Institutional Bio-Safety Committee (IBSC)) Accreditation
The facility is an IBSC committee approved by the DBT (Department of Biotechnology, Government of India) nominated IBSC Nominee, DBT nominated outside expert and medical Safety Officer to review and approve the projects involving biological products or derived products.
