Membership

We invite you to become a member of Baylor College of Medicine's Center for NextGen Therapeutics (CNGT). CNGT offers a unique opportunity for scientists, researchers, and industry partners to collaborate and advance the development of innovative multispecific therapeutics.

By joining CNGT, you gain access to a wide range of benefits designed to support and accelerate your research efforts:

1. Access to our curated druggable target list: CNGT members receive exclusive access to our continuously updated list of proteins that have been identified as potential targets for small molecule therapeutics. This list is generated through comprehensive, target-agnostic screens across the entire proteome using state-of-the-art proteomics technologies. By leveraging this valuable resource, you can streamline your target selection process and focus on the most promising candidates for your research.
2. Consultation on choice of therapeutic modalities and assay development: Our team of experienced scientists and drug discovery experts will provide guidance and support in selecting the most appropriate therapeutic modalities for your targets of interest. Whether you are considering small molecules, antibodies, or other modalities, we will work with you to identify the best approach based on your specific research goals and requirements. Additionally, our team will offer consultation on assay development, ensuring that you have robust and reliable methods to validate the mechanism of action and measure the efficacy of your chosen compounds.
3. Collaborative co-development opportunities: If your target of interest is present on our druggable target list, and the provided compound successfully engages the intended target, CNGT offers the opportunity for collaborative co-development of the compound series. Our team will work closely with you to optimize the drug-like properties of the compound, leveraging our expertise in medicinal chemistry, structural biology, and pharmacology. This collaborative approach allows for the rapid advancement of promising compounds towards preclinical and clinical development.
