Drug Repurposing for Cancer Therapy: From Man to Molecules to Man
Description
From Man to Molecules to Man, or M^3, is a NIH BD2K award to the UNC Eshelman School of Pharmacy with RENCI as a collaborating partner. M^3 seeks to identify novel drug uses through a pipeline that incorporates data on the relationships between drugs and their side effects (extracted from social media and various health forums), QSAR modeling data, and knowledge bases on chemical-biological and entity-disease relationships.
RENCI's Role
RENCI focuses on building the cyberinfrastructure that will bridge queries across multiple knowledge sources and on text mining assistance.
