This course focuses on the early stages of drug discovery and the identification of promising compounds with which to begin the hunt for a novel drug. Different types of assays and methods are reviewed that are used to screen libraries of molecules in the preliminary search for compounds with activity. Methods are discussed for validating that active molecules are indeed engaging a target associated with a predicted therapeutic benefit.
Target audience: This course is suitable for life scientists, clinicians, and individuals from fields that support drug discovery (e.g., patents, finance, licensing, etc.) interested in learning more about the pharmaceutical/biotechnology sector. Advanced undergraduate coursework or practical familiarity/working knowledge in biological sciences and organic chemistry is recommended.
Welcome, by the end of the course students will be able to: Recognize the differences between target-based and phenotypic drug discovery. Differentiate between common library types and screening approaches for identifying small molecule hits. Describe some of the assay types used in early screening and factors to consider in their design.

When will I have access to the lectures and assignments?
To access the course materials, assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience when you enroll in a course. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid. The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.
What will I get if I subscribe to this Specialization?
When you enroll in the course, you get access to all of the courses in the Specialization, and you earn a certificate when you complete the work. Your electronic Certificate will be added to your Accomplishments page - from there, you can print your Certificate or add it to your LinkedIn profile.
Is financial aid available?
Yes. In select learning programs, you can apply for financial aid or a scholarship if you can’t afford the enrollment fee. If fin aid or scholarship is available for your learning program selection, you’ll find a link to apply on the description page.
