Call for User Projects
05 / 05 / 2026
CZ-OPENSCREEN National Infrastructure for Chemical Biology has launched a new Call for User Project Support for academic researchers working in chemical biology and early-stage drug discovery. Through dedicated funding programs, users can access high-throughput screening technologies, advanced biological assays, and a chemical library of more than 200,000 compounds. Researchers from the Czech Republic and abroad are invited to submit innovative projects with strong scientific potential. The call is open from 5 May to 5 June 2026, with results announced on 30 June 2026. More information is available on the main page.
The CZ-OPENSCREEN compound library was recently enhanced by including 9,944 of novel high-quality chemical compounds of the Advanced Diversity Set (selected from the Enamine's Advanced Diversity Library). The collection contains premium small molecules with lead-like properties (molecular ≤ 350, cLogP ≤ 3, and rotatable bonds ≤ 7 and/or valuable pharmacophores suc as carboxylic, primary amino and amide groups). The library is specific for representing synthetically new and unique chemotypes with sp3-rich molecular scaffolds, which are likely to interact with hardly druggable biological targets.
