Sheena CruickshankFascinating and reveals a different way to approach science that is more open and multidisciplinary. An open-science, crowdsourced, and structure-enabled drug discovery campaign was done to target SARS-CoV-2 which discovered a novel anti viral protease based candidate that is distinct from currently used protease inhibitors. https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.abo7201
makeasnek@Sheencr There is an international open drug discovery project you may be interested in called #SiDock. They are using the computers of volunteers to identify compounds to make a patent-free, shelf-stable covid antiviral. Anybody with a computer can download their tool and contribute: https://sidock.si
