However, this data must be stored, processed, and distributed effectively.

NeuroSGC created to increase volume and quality of cell assays for drug discovery

A new partnership between the Structural Genomics Consortium (SGC) and the Montreal Neurological Institute and Hospital (The Neuro) will use a unique open science framework to help scientists discover new targets for drug development for neurological diseases.

The partnership, called NeuroSGC, will initially focus on Parkinson鈥檚 disease and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), two of the most common neurodegenerative diseases.
