Surfing at the interface of chemistry and biology

Imagine all data about compounds and their related biological targets were easily accessible in on just one web-interface. ChemBioNavigator (CBN) is such a web-application that was specifically designed to visualize small-molecule and pharmacological data. We will show how CBN can be effectively used to:

  • discover new taget-compound interactions
  • identify multi-target as well as target-specific compound sets
  • retrieve small-molecule data from a variety of web-resources
  • search by similarity and substructure across the chemical universe

Pharmacological research is hampered by scattered data, which has to be retrieved by varying methods and in different data formats. Based on the EU-funded OpenPHACTS discovery plattform all such data can now be accessed in a unified way. The ChemBioNavigator – featured in this webinar – allows the user to visualize and conveniently navigate this chemical and biological space.
