Sai Life Sciences, a global Contract Research, Development & Manufacturing Organization (CRO-CDMO), has entered a 5-year strategic agreement with Schrödinger, whose physics-based computational platform is transforming the way therapeutics and materials are discovered, to set up the Sai Schrödinger Research Laboratories (SSRL) in Hyderabad, India.
 
Being built inside Sai Life Sciences’ R&D campus in genome valley, Hyderabad, SSRL will be a dedicated facility for integrated discovery work streams including medicinal & synthetic chemistry, in vitro biology, and process chemistry. It will access other Sai capabilities such as in vitro ADME and in vivo PK as needed. The relationship will support advancement of programs that leverage Schrödinger’s validated computational platform.
 
Making the announcement, Krishna Kanumuri, CEO & Managing Director, Sai Life Sciences, said, “We’re truly delighted that Schrödinger has decided to partner with Sai Life Sciences to set-up their first offshore research laboratories. In many ways, this is a testimony to the advances we have made in the scale, scope and depth of our integrated drug discovery capabilities. We are very excited about working with the Schrödinger team and, guided by our brand promise, will strive to make it better together.”
 
Scheduled to open in April 2023, SSRL will commence with about 75 staff members, across full-time-equivalents (FTEs) in Medicinal Chemistry, Biology, Process Chemistry, Analytical Chemistry, and other support staff. Recruitment has commenced for SSRL.
 
The Discovery business of Sai Life Sciences has been witnessing a transformative phase of growth in recent years, as is evidenced in its expanding client mix and diversity of programs. Powered by investments in talent, technology and capacity across Boston and Hyderabad, the company’s global delivery model is delivering value to its customers through a blend of talent, speed, and cost efficiency.
