Drug Discovery 2021 After the Storm: Re-connect, Re-invent, Re-imagine

Alignment of Chemogenomic and Functional Genomic screening for target ID

Abstract

The talk will describe our strategy for combining functional genomic and chemogenomic screening approaches to find new targets for drug discovery. GSK’s Chemogenomic screening platform has been re-designed and expanded to facilitate its application, alongside genetic screening, in disease relevant primary cellular systems such as iPSC derived macrophages and T cells. The talk will outline our current chemogenomic capability and our strategy for alignment of this capability with CRIPSR screens to identify tractable, genetically validated targets.
