A novel pipeline for drug repurposing, applied to neurological diseases
Postdoc
University of Copenhagen
Trinh Trung Duong Nguyen, Department of Drug design and Pharmacology, University of Copenhagen, has been awarded a postdoc research grant from the Lundbeck Foundation worth DKK 2.399.467
The project seeks to find new uses for known drugs in treating neurological diseases by combining computational methods with lab tests. The project will use advanced language processing algorithms and graph neural networks on public corpora in health data to identify promising compounds. Compounds/drugs with potential new uses will undergo further gene analysis and checks for their drug qualities and how they interact in biological systems. A scientific database will be built to reflect the process.
