The
Chemical Library
Screening facility (CLS), part of The Burnham Institute's High Throughput
Screening and Analysis (HTSA) umbrella, is located in the San Diego Center for
Chemical Genomics, building
2. Its purpose is to provide a high throughput
screening
infrastructure for the Burnham Institute. Some of the main goals
of the facility are to;
- Assist labs in developing assays amenable to a high throughput
screening format
- Assist labs in finding compounds that can be used as tools to
solve basic questions in cell biology, cancer biology, as well as
neurodegenerative and infectious diseases.
- Advance such compounds further down stream in the flow of drug development
The
facility is
equipped with a core robotic system, as well as has at its disposal
~54,000 compounds.
