Important results from the project
Within this project we were able to develop a new drug discovery screening platform to find potent drug candidates targeting SARS-CoV2 infection.
Expected long term effects
The project enabled us to conduct a high throughput screen to find potential drug hits targeting SARS-CoV2 infection.
Approach and implementation
The project was structured according to specific work packages including development of respective synthetic biology tools, conducting of high throughput screening, analysis of the created data sets and hit evaluation.
