Project description
Connecting research to drug development
Bridging the gap between basic research and drug development could result in new medicines with great societal benefits. The EU-funded ESCulab project will enable the translation of fundamental scientific understanding into innovative starting points for drug development. The project will allow innovators from EU academics to SMEs to access pioneering industrial facilities, drug discovery expertise and a library with more than 550 000 compounds suitable for screening potential drug targets. ESCulab will initiate the European Lead Factory and expand it by supporting 185 new screens. It will deliver qualified hit lists, create proposals to attract investors and drug developers, and induce them to further exploitation of the findings.
