Target Identification
Identify and validate the right therapeutic target
Finding the right therapeutic targets is the cornerstone of success.
Your goal is to bring life-changing therapies to market faster and more efficiently, and we are here to help you do that. Our Target Identification service is designed to turn complex data into actionable insights, so you can focus on what really matters: making a difference.
Navigating the complexities
Identifying and validating therapeutic targets can be a daunting task. We understand the obstacles researchers face: the lack of accessible, integrated data assets and the difficulty of consolidating insights from heterogeneous sources. Our goal is to tackle these challenges to accelerate drug discovery and reduce the risk of failure.

Identifying and validating therapeutic targets
Discover actionable therapeutic targets in an ocean of biological data. Identify the targets that are relevant to your disease and can be effectively modulated by integrating and interpreting data from various sources.
Understanding target function
Uncover the target’s role in the disease by understanding its function in biological pathways and broader role in the disease progression. Generate insights from biological complexity and avoid pursuing targets that won’t ultimately deliver therapeutic success.
Ensuring safety and efficacy
Gain confidence in your targets by predicting druggability and assessing the potential for off-target effects. Remove a layer of uncertainty by ensuring that your targets will be both safe and effective before you move forward.
Selecting the right experimental models
Select the right preclinical model that accurately reflects patient biology to avoid misleading data and wasted resources. Ensure that your in vitro research translates into real-world outcomes by selecting the right models.
Reducing the time and cost of validation
Accelerate the experimental validation stage by starting with the most promising targets. Validate your in silico results in the lab faster and at a lower cost by tapping into our extensive network of partners.

Innovations in action
Target discovery and prioritization
We leverage advanced Machine Learning to mine your multi-omics data and identify the most promising therapeutic targets. Our approach helps select the targets that are worth pursuing, saving you time and resources.
Target validation
Our rigorous validation process ensures that the targets you’re considering are not only relevant but also actionable. We reduce the risk of late-stage failures by screening the targets early on and providing you with the confidence you need to move forward.
Target deconvolution
Unraveling complex biological interactions helps you pinpoint the specific role of each target within its molecular and cellular environment. This deep understanding enables you to design more precise therapeutic interventions.
Indication expansion
We can help you unlock new therapeutic potentials for existing targets, expanding the scope of your research and opening up new treatment possibilities.
