The Penn Center for Molecular Discovery (PCMD), founded at the University of Pennsylvania, is a multi-disciplinary center that screens small molecules from around the world in search of new, potentially useful biologically effective agents. The Penn Center for Molecular Discovery is housed within the Institute for Medicine and Engineering.The Director of the Center is Scott Diamond, Ph.D., the Arthur E. Humphrey Professor of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering. The PCMD contributes to a massive, public-domain database (PubChem) where interactions between the NIH repository and thousands of biological targets can be data-mined at an unprecedented level. |
