           Do you want to work as part of a large collaborative team to drive innovation in #computational drug discovery? My lab is looking for a talented #Postdoc to lead efforts to do this! Please apply here (  https://t.co/ASfVGfZX97)!  Compensation is well above the national average.

             Can you accurately scan ~10 million drug-target pairs per minute? We think you can! In our new preprint (with @rohitsingh8080 , Lenore Cowen, and @lab_berger ), we develop ConPLex, a high-throughput method for predicting drug-target interaction (DTI).  https://t.co/VkTuuXaPro  🧵

              Sequence-based prediction of drug-target interactions has the potential to accelerate drug discovery by complementing experimental screens. Such computational prediction needs to be generalizable and...
