HPC Wire | Supercomputing shows great promise to improve the process of drug discovery, not only to find better, safer drugs, but also to weed out those compounds that would eventually fail during clinical trials.

August 3, 2012 | In recent years, on average, less than two dozen new drugs have been introduced per year. One of the more promising technologies that could help speed up this process is supercomputing, which can be used not only to find better, safer drugs, but also to weed out those compounds that would eventually fail during the latter stages of drug trials.
