Yesterday, I gave a tutorial in Toronto, Canada on how to use the EBI chemical entities databases as part of the 'Patent Informatics: Sequence & Chemical Databases for Prior Art Searching' workshop. This one day session was organised by the Canadian Bioinformatics Workshop. It was held at the Ontario Institute for Cancer Research, which is situated in downtown Toronto.
It was a very well organised workshop with good facilities and tasty refreshments.
Toronto is a beautiful city and I hope to explore it tomorrow before flying down to Boston to give my talk at Bio-IT World.
(Generated with DALL-E 3 ∙ 30 October 2023 at 1:48 pm) We have some very exciting news to report: the new SureChEMBL is now available! Hooray! What is SureChEMBL, you may ask. Good question! In our portfolio of chemical biology services, alongside our established database of bioactivity data for drug-like molecules ChEMBL , our dictionary of annotated small molecule entities ChEBI , and our compound cross-referencing system UniChem , we also deliver a database of annotated patents! Almost 10 years ago , EMBL-EBI acquired the SureChem system of chemically annotated patents and made this freely accessible in the public domain as SureChEMBL. Since then, our team has continued to maintain and deliver SureChEMBL. However, this has become increasingly challenging due to the complexities of the underlying codebase. We were awarded a Wellcome Trust grant in 2021 to completely overhaul SureChEMBL, with a new UI, backend infrastructure, and new f
