The University of Oxford: Intel and United Devices Team Up to Speed Cancer Research
Overview The University of Oxford Chemistry Department is home to the Centre for Computational Drug Design, set up by the National Foundation for Cancer Research (NFCR). Oxford's aggressive goal was to screen several chemical libraries against 12 target proteins previously determined to be key elements in cancer growth. The objective was to dramatically increase the scope of large-scale virtual screening, speeding the search for drug candidates while maintaining a highly manageable and secure research environment. Oxford worked with United Devices to enable a third-party virtual screening application on the Grid MP platform. Researchers quickly took advantage of the flexibility and scalability of Grid MP Global to expand the project's scope.
