Traditional drug discovery begins by identifying a biological substance (target protein) related to a disease and finding small chemical compounds that can control that function in a library of known chemical compounds. This limits the search space from the start, making it difficult to create chemical compounds with new structures (new drugs). In recent years, improved performance in computer ...
