Regulatory, technological, and time-to-market demands are placing an ever-increasing value on the ability to verify and validate product and process performance in advance, before creating the first physical prototype. ANSYS, setting the industry standard in CM&S (computer modeling & simulation), enables you to identify problems early in the design cycle when there is more flexibility to make changes. This helps lower the time and cost of bringing new products to market, and significantly reduces failure and recall risk.

Join ANSYS for a full day of presentations from customers and ANSYS technical experts on key topics affecting the healthcare industry, including:

• Biogen
• J&J DePuy
• Amgen
• Phenomyx
• Granta Design

These presentations will illustrate how CM&S can provide additional evidence regarding product and process safety and efficacy, augmenting the safety and efficacy data gained from the classic approaches of bench testing, animal testing, and clinical trials.
