Neglected and Tropical Diseases

I've tried to support research in the Neglected Tropical Disease area in several ways, I organised a session at the 19th Cambridge MedChem Meeting in 2017 and arranged for the session to be recorded and is now available online and has been watched nearly 300 times.

This is a recording of the Neglected and Tropical Diseases Session at the 19th Cambridge MedChem Meeting, 11-13 September 2017. The speakers are Kelly Chibale (Univ of Capetown), Christoph Boss (Actelion), Rob Young (GlaxoSmithKline), Jonathan Large (LifeArc) and Charles Mowbray (DNDI).

So I was delighted to hear that IUPHAR/BPS Guide to pharmacology database have been funded by MMV to add details of antimalarials to their database.

This link http://www.guidetopharmacology.org/GRAC/FamilyDisplayForward?familyId=970 gives details of antimalarial targets, including gene name, synonyms and Uniprot ID.

This link http://www.guidetopharmacology.org/GRAC/FamilyDisplayForward?familyId=999 gives details of antimalarial ligands, including mode of action and properties. For example artemisinin.

I'd urge you have a look and I'm sure they would be happy to hear any suggestions.
