Empower comprehensive drug discovery research
For academic researchers, navigating the vast landscape of literature to identify disease targets, plan structure-activity relationship studies, and screen for potential off-target interactions can be overwhelming. CAS BioFinder consolidates vital data and solutions tailored to meet the needs of academic settings, supporting faculty and students across drug discovery workflows, including discovery biology and medicinal chemistry.
With CAS BioFinder, you can help library users find insights into the intricate relationships between ligands, targets, and diseases. Built on the trusted CAS Content Collection™, now expanded to include interconnected biological data, the CAS BioFinder AI-enhanced predictive bioactivity models ensure your library’s users always have the most relevant information.
CAS BioFinder enhances the foundational research capabilities of your institution with:
- In-depth data on bioactivity, chemical structures, biological pathways, biomarkers associated with diseases, antibodies and ADCs, immunotherapies, and more.
- Predictive models for fast, batch screening of ligands against targets.
- Enhanced analytical visualizations and interactive 3D models for navigating biologically relevant compounds.
- Drug intelligence information on clinical trial status, indications, and targets.
- Integration with your existing CAS SciFinder workflows for seamless research.
"The ease of finding references for compounds [in CAS BioFinder] actually helped us understand more about a possible new target on which our ligand acted in phenotypic assays."

Enhanced biological data for institutional success
You already trust CAS to provide chemistry researchers with the highest-quality data available. Now, we’ve applied our rigorous standards and human-curation methods to the biological data needed for drug discovery. We harmonize, organize, and standardize data from thousands of life sciences journals, nearly 100 global patent offices, and all leading free and third-party databases. By benchmarking against these data sources, our scientists ensure that the CAS Content Collection includes the interconnected data your pharmaceutical researchers need—integrated into a single, standardized resource for quick, accurate searching.
