Collaborations

How can you work with us?

The NCTT is a collaboration-driven center, so we are continually looking to establish new projects with scientists who have novel assays, screens, chemical libraries, cheminformatics tools and analyses, detection and automation technologies or small molecule probes and leads.

Find out more about working with NCTT by reading our Frequently Asked Questions page, How Do I?

Collaborate with the Assay Development Group

If you are a potential assay collaborator, please consult our recent review on assay technologies (Nat Chem Biol 3:466, 2007) and view the Assay Guidance Manual. We regularly advise potential collaborators on assay development strategies and find that consultation early in the process is most efficient.

See: HTS Guidance Criteria

Collaborate with the Chemistry Group

Collaborations in chemistry typically focus on novel chemical libraries, synthesis or analysis methodologies, or derivatization of probes for biochemical and target identification studies. If you are interested in a chemistry collaboration, visit the Chemistry Group.

Collaborate with the Informatics Group

Informatics collaborations may focus on compound descriptor/SAR, individual or combined assay data analysis paradigms or novel visualization and integration methods. If you are interested in an informatics collaboration, visit the Informatics Group.

Collaborate with the Automation Group

Projects in automation and detection work to operationalize new methods and robotics to expand the reach or efficiency of screening and chemistry. If you are interested in automation at the NCTT, visit the Automation Group.

Collaborate with Therapeutics for Rare and Neglected Diseases

For collaborations in the area of Therapeutics for Rare and Neglected Diseases (TRND), go to: http://nctt.nih.gov/27543715.

Collaborate with NIH Center for Translational Therapeutics

If any of these opportunities sound interesting to you, we would like to hear from you. To contact the NCTT about potential collaboration, please send an e-mail to ncttwebmaster@mail.nih.gov.
