Genetic 'roadmap' charts links between drugs and human disease
Scientists create public database of 'genomic signatures' for ~160 drugs and use it to reveal potential applications to cancer and other diseases
04-Oct-2006 -
A research team led by scientists at the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard announced the development of a new kind of genetic "roadmap" that can connect human diseases with potential drugs to treat them, as well as predict how new drugs work in human cells. Called the "Connectivity Map," the new ...
