Drug Discovery Cores

Assay & Chemistry Core

Testing & optimization of chemical matter from hits to lead compounds, enabling discovery of potential therapeutics.

Chemistry: Synthesis is pursued through CRO or academic partners, while the core provides strong in-house assay development and compound screening to rapidly validate and prioritize hits.

Compound Screening

Medium/high-throughput screening of focused libraries and virtual screening hits in relevant standardized or custom assays.

Assay Development

Biochemical and cell-based assay design, optimization, and validation.

Data & SAR Support

Dose-response analysis and feedback to modeling and chemistry teams.
