HTS Facility
Recent advances in molecular biology and genomics research are leading to the discovery of new drug targets. At the same time, improved assay methods have become available for virtually all target classes. This offers enormous opportunities for biotech and pharmaceutical companies to fully exploit the potential of high-throughput-screening (HTS) to develop new drug candidates.
BRI's HTS Facility offers industrial clients, as well as academic and NRC researchers, the opportunity to efficiently and confidentially screen extensive compound libraries at a reasonable cost. The HTS Facility provides access to small molecule collections and assistance in conducting and interpreting high-throughput screens.
