Understanding the toxicology endpoints that matter in ADC development
Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) present unique toxicology challenges. Learn which endpoints matter most, how they inform development decisions and why they are essential for building a robust nonclinical safety strategy.
ArticleWhy the blood–brain barrier blocks most drugs – and how ultrasound could help
The blood–brain barrier protects the brain from harmful substances, but it also prevents many medicines from reaching their target. Researchers are investigating whether focused ultrasound could safely improve drug delivery.
ArticleInside one of the most comprehensive human proteome atlases to date
Understanding where proteins are expressed throughout the body is critical for selecting better drug targets. Here’s how a new human proteome atlas could improve target selection, predict toxicity and support drug repurposing.
ArticleAI’s promise and practical limits in drug discovery
From ChatGPT to AI agents and world models, where is AI really heading in drug discovery? Dr Raminderpal Singh explains what researchers should focus on now.

NewsMitochondrial microprotein discovery reveals new Type 2 diabetes genetic link
A newly identified mitochondrial microprotein, MENTSH, has been linked to increased Type 2 diabetes susceptibility in Mexican and Mexican American populations, pointing towards a potential precision medicine target.
NewsBMP3 protein identified as therapeutic target for pulmonary arterial hypertension
Scientists at the Fralin Biomedical Research Institute have identified bone morphogenetic protein 3 as a protective factor in lung blood vessels, with preclinical data showing that restoring its levels can reverse hallmark features of pulmonary arterial hypertension.
NewsInsilico Medicine launches AI drug discovery benchmarking platform
Insilico Medicine has unveiled a benchmarking platform designed to assess whether AI models can perform genuine drug discovery tasks, using decontaminated real-world datasets and proprietary validated programmes to move beyond inflated benchmark scores.
NewsFullscope-seq maps transcript isoforms with spatial single-cell resolution
Researchers have developed Fullscope-seq, a long-read spatial transcriptomics platform that maps alternative transcript isoforms within intact tissues at single-cell resolution – opening new possibilities for target identification and precision biomarker discovery.
