OxTalks is Changing
Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. From now until the launch of Oxford Events, new events cannot be published or edited on OxTalks while all existing records are migrated to the new platform. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period.
From 16th, Oxford Events will launch on a new website: events.ox.ac.uk, and event submissions will resume. You will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
The history and use of DNA-Encoded Libraries in drug discovery
DNA Encoded Libraries (DELs) have become an important and efficient approach for identifying novel chemical entities targeting a range of biomolecular architectures.
Barry Morgan led the development of the DEL platform at Praecis Pharmaceuticals, Boston, joining GSK to lead its continued investment in DEL screening after GSK bought Praecis in 2007. Since that time GSK has gone on to publish several novel chemical entities, now in late phase clinical development. What started as a theory from Sydney Brenner & Richard Lerner has truly come of age as a powerful drug-discovery approach.
Barry is now CSO at HitGen, who continue to build a strong DEL platform based in Chengdu, China.
