Computational approaches for the study of the role of small molecules in diseases
Mónica Campillos · Perspectives in Science · 2016
An enormous amount of molecular and phenotypic information of drugs as well as diseases is now available in public repositories. Computational analysis of these datasets is facilitating the acquisition of a systems view of how drugs act on our human organism and interfere with diseases. Here, I highlight recent approaches integrating large-scale information of drugs and diseases that are contributing to change our current view on how drugs interfere with human diseases.
