LeadOp Computing develops and commercializes computational methods for predicting the toxicity of molecules. It is hard to tell which molecules are good from a safety perspective and which ones are bad. This answer is project-dependent and, in addition, in vivo pharmacology is not yet understood well enough to return a reliable answer.Beyond the traditional QSAR approach to predicting toxicity, LeadOp Computing is combining fragment-based analysis and statistics to identify… Show more LeadOp Computing develops and commercializes computational methods for predicting the toxicity of molecules.

This answer is project-dependent and, in addition, in vivo pharmacology is not yet understood well enough to return a reliable answer.Beyond the traditional QSAR approach to predicting toxicity, LeadOp Computing is combining fragment-based analysis and statistics to identify potential liabilities from the early stages of NCE discovery and provide our customers with as much information as possible to take the right decisions (for instance how to quickly confirm the prediction, impact of the liability).
