The majority of small molecule drugs induce their therapeutic effects by seeking out and binding to their intended target while avoiding most other molecules in the dense milieu of the cell interior. In doing so, biological processes that rely on a specific target can be selectively modulated, ultimately producing the desired therapeutic effect. Understanding the […]

We have overcome many obstacles on this mission, inventing new concepts and methods where necessary and re-engineering known concepts and methods where possible. But we have not been the only people on this […]
