Australian Drug Discovery Library (ADDL)

Banner Image

At the core of a successful drug discovery is a high-quality chemical library. A fit-for-purpose drug discovery library is not a random collection of compounds, but a collection of carefully curated chemistry that is designed to cover the diversity of drug-like chemistry space and provide tractable starting points for medicinal chemistry optimisation.

This project will build on a national framework to provide Australian drug discovery organisations access to a comprehensive Hit ID platform that includes:

  • a fit for purpose drug discovery library (up to 300,000 compounds)
  • an ultra-high throughput screening facility
  • fragment-based drug design capability
  • a state of the art software platform for in silico drug discovery.
