A guide to identifying and prioritising drug targets with the Open Targets Platform

All data is available through an intuitive user interface, a GraphQL API, and data downloads. Likewise, the pipeline and infrastructure codebases are open-source and can be used to create a self-hosted private instance of the Platform with custom data.

Who is this course for?
This webinar is suitable for lab-based and computational research scientists, graduate students, and post-doctoral research fellows working in early stage drug discovery.
