Build a robust de-risking strategy for drug discovery with CAS
Harness the wealth of existing knowledge—bioactivity data, ADMET data, sequences, and more—as well as predictive tools to make connections and deepen insights for faster drug discovery.
Building on more than 100 years of experience as the world’s most trusted source for indexed and standardized chemistry information, CAS is expanding our human-curated content to include key data and capabilities relevant to drug discovery programs.
Partner with us to solve your unique problems using our comprehensive data and solutions to guide drug discovery decision-making. Our solutions currently include sequence information and bioactivity data—including from SAR and ADMET studies—with molecular biomarker and mammalian pathway data coming in 2023.
In 2023, this data and more will also be accessible through a software solution similar to CAS SciFindern but with an interface optimized for drug discovery workflows.
Our goal is to empower every aspect of drug discovery across scientific disciplines, including biology, and this expansion reflects a historic milestone on our path to accelerate life sciences research.
