Bayer will support funding the consortium to accelerate precompetitive drug research in the areas of protein sciences and epigenetics. Furthermore, Bayer will provide a subset of its compound library for screening to the SGC and will also conduct the chemical work to identify probes. The joint research efforts within the consortium may open up new possibilities for the development of novel therapies – particularly in oncology.
