Who are our end users?

Biologists need to know what compounds are active against a target using a variety of assays

Chemists need to know what are the structural features of compounds that are active for that target across a variety of assays

Protocol

Experiments are instances of a protocol and all protocols have a defined target

All data is generated for a compound in an experiment

Each compound gets one number for efficacy and one for potency

Summary

Chemoprints provide a way for Biologists to visualize massive amounts of biological data to discover what compounds are active against a target

HierS scaffolds provide a means for Chemists to discover what structural features are related to activity and to find distinct scaffold that exhibit that activity

4242

Where I see the future going

R Group Deconvolution could provide insight into why certain compounds containing a scaffold are active while others are not

Activity Searching would allow chemists and biologists to find compounds that exhibit more complex activity than simple activity against one target
