R&D Symposium Virtual Biology

April 21, 2026

From cells to patients

Imec

Speaker: Mar Cóndor - Principal Member of Technical staff at imec

Event details

Johnson & Johnson R&D symposium dedicated to ‘Virtual Biology – from cells to patients: transforming data into translational insights and patient impact’, taking place at the J&J campus in Beerse on June 18, 2026.

This year’s program will explore how digital technologies, data-driven insights, and deep biological understanding come together to accelerate innovation. You’ll learn how virtual models are helping us decode cellular behavior, predict outcomes earlier, and ultimately drive meaningful impact for patients.

Expect a day filled with inspiring talks, fresh perspectives, networking opportunities and real-world examples where science, technology and patient focus come together and shape the future of medicine.

Speakers include Sylvia Boj (Chief Scientific Officer at HUB Organoids), Mar Cóndor (Principal Member of Technical staff at imec), Stanley Durrleman (CEO & Co-founder of Qairnel), Jos Joore (CEO Mimetas), Steven Niederer (Chair of Biochemical Engineering, Imperial College London), Ketan Patel (Head of Products at Bioptimus), Justin Scheer (Vice President In Silico Discovery at Johnson & Johnson), Piet van der Graaf (Head of Quantitative Systems Pharmacology at Certara) and others.

  • When: Thursday, June 18, 2026 from 9.30 AM to 5 PM
  • Where: Johnson & Johnson, Turnhoutseweg 30, 2340 Beerse, Belgium
  • For whom: Researchers, clinicians and industry leaders
