A pdf of our poster presented at the meeting is available here. The IDG program aims to shed light on understudied drug targets - proteins that are members of three protein families commonly targeted by drugs (G-protein coupled receptors, ion channels, protein kinases) that themselves have not attracted much research attention. The IDG Consortium is supported by the NIH’s Common Fund and my postdoctoral research is currently funded by the IDG grant.
