Icagen partners with global pharmaceutical and biotech companies to generate high-quality, advanced leads.  As a focused, Target-to-Lead (T2L) company, Icagen works with collaborators in multi-year, integrated drug discovery programs as well as piecemeal projects to fill-in the gaps of R&D efforts.  Born from a biotech background and matured by pharma companies, Icagen brings to partners a North American team with over 20 years of experience in early discovery.  The process of drug discovery starts with druggable targets.  Icagen scientists have vast experience in target-based drug discovery, including ion channels, kinases, GPCR’s and transporters.  The Icagen team works with collaborators to determine target feasibility using state-of-the-art computational chemistry methods.  Once a target is selected the team combines virtual screening, ultra-high throughput screening (uHTS), biology and medicinal chemistry to generate viable leads in an iterative process.
