Title

Cell Based assays; the guiding light for drug discovery

Synopsis

Drug Discovery research is highly competitive and time sensitive. Invitro cell based assays provide the first biological hurdle in the progression of potential new chemical entities in their progression to becoming a therapeutic drug; Majority of the synthesized compounds get filtered out in this step, hence its extremely important to set up the assays in such a way that the outcome provide true reliable measure of effect of each compound
