A hybrid approach for identifying drug repurposing candidates and their mechanisms

Senior researcher Vanessa Lage-Rupprecht and two collaborators talk about what data science means to them and illustrate how they managed to create a data and lab coexistence in their drug-repurposing project, which was recently published in Patterns. In this article, they have developed a drug-target-mechanism-oriented data model, Human Brain PHARMACOME, and have presented it as a resource to the community.
